Boy. Girl.

Picking out a Christmas Tree. Gardening. 

boy and his octopus

One of my daily doodles produced a sketch of a kid flying away with an octopus. I’ve since thought of many iterations of kids having a fantastic-fun-time with animals but this is the only one that made it beyond a doodle.  

Mouse

When I don’t know what to do I tend to start drawing animals. This little mouse seems to be looking for something. Conversations with a variety of characters ensue. 

Portrait

I haven’t painted since I was a freshman in college. It’s been even longer since I attempted anything realistic. This portrait has distorted features but I was happy to discover that I can still mix paint from primary colors and layer it into something that at least resembles a human. Might want to try and emphasize the distortion rather than “fix” it.  

Copper Leaves Pendant

Trying out a new design with copper. I love to work small but the saw marks in the corners drive me crazy.  

Silver Gingko Pendant

I’ve always loved gingko trees. There is one in front of my gym and the leaves create such a striking contrast against the concrete of the city. 

This piece is hand cut and has a soft, brushed finish.
