Free Spirit WIP
Spring came and then the snow followed! At least where I am! I’m scratching my head confused as to how this happened. Two days ago I was thinking about wearing shorts. Today I have two pairs of pants and three shirts on, struggling to stay warm! Baffling! Well, enough about weather. Let’s talk art! I’ve […]

Spread the Happy
“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.” -Roger Caras I love how happy dogs are all the time! They truly understand how to be happy with what they have. They also love nothing more than the company of a good friend(…and good food). I love when dogs smile. Smiles are contagious […]

Their heads are square with defined facial features. They have two rows of heat pits that run along their mouth. Because of their striking appearance, I […]

Free Spirit Leap Year!
How exciting! We have come to another leap year! What will you do with your extra day this year? Perhaps a marriage proposal will arise? In Irish history, it was called Bachelor’s day. Women were allowed to purpose to men on a leap day. If the man said no, he was forced to pay a penalty. He […]

Transsssformation
Just a sketch for today’s post. Snakes and other reptiles have always fascinated me. The great anaconda is an earthly wonder! I marvel at their size. The snake in Native American teachings represents transformation. In “shedding your skin” you can tie up loose ends and create room for new beginnings. If a snake slithers across […]

Free Spirit Flashback
I came across a bunch of old sketchbooks and school projects the other day. It’s really funny to look back and see the drawings you did as a kid and compare them through the years. I thought it would be neat to do a timeline of my work for my latest post. I wasn’t able […]

A Visual Universe
I have been diligent with keeping a sketchbook lately. I am usually terrible about it, inconsistent. I use to think there was a right and a wrong way to use a sketchbook and it discouraged me. I always make things harder on myself then they really have to be. Like there is a secret I […]
