Studio Talk – My Process
Jan 07 2015
The weapons I currently use to attack a blank white canvas for my new painting series are 1. Old school paper mate mechanical pencil (bye bye pencil sharpener) 2. 10/0 detail paint brush 3. Raw sienna acrylic ink. I’ve gotten to a point where I’m more precise with a paint brush then with a pen. Who knew that could happen?
It’s a new year full of possibilities. I’m looking forward to new opportunities, partnerships, collaborations, and creativity. I’ve been planning my next painting series and it promises to be my greatest collection of paintings thus far. Along with documenting my preliminary sketches and noting my thoughts throughout the creation of this new series, I am challenging myself to record my creative process. Look out for some videos taking you into my art studio showing you how I do what I do.

Studio Talk: Blooms on Black
Jun 04 2014
Blooms on Black, is my new series of gorgeous watercolor paintings done in a vibrant colorful palate and set against a blueish black backdrop. Using an abstracted view of the subject-matter, some paintings in this series may cause you to look deeper and ask, “Wait, what is that?”
In keeping with my previous collections, my color palette is bold and modern. Comment below and tell me what you think about this series. Your feedback is welcomed.

Studio Talk: Press Check Day
May 28 2014
One of my favorite steps in this art process is, PRESS CHECK DAY!!!!! I bring all of my original paintings and check the colors of my art prints. I am super picky and I do my best to get as close to the original painting as possible. It’s such a rewarding process and always lifts my day. Here are some pictures from one of my press checks at the printers.

Studio Talk: The Art of a Handwritten Note
Apr 23 2014
April is National Letter Writing month. This is an annual effort to promote literacy and celebrate the art of letter writing. To celebrate, I am doing two things this year. I will catch up on all of handwritten “thank you” notes. Also, I am introducing my 10 year old daughter to writing thank you notes and letters. We created a special stationery box just for her and I gave her a special silver pen to store with her personal stationery collection. I’m passing on a tradition that has existed for centuries. Teaching your child to write thank you notes is also a great way to teach children how to practice gratitude. That’s a gift your child will carry with them for a lifetime.
I personally love receiving a handwritten note and sadly with the invention of technology it has become a lost art. I believe we can bring this tradition back.
How do practice and teach gratitude to your children? Please share below.
