Awaken. 9 x 12″ on Paper. Click here to visit my shop. …….. Lately I am just loving to paint these characters with more human faces. I love exploring the duality between physical and nonphysical worlds and how the two can exist together. I am inspired by Renaissance portraits with their very realistic portrayal of the human form. The eyes and face always seem so... Continue reading

Create Magic. 9×12″ on Bristol Paper. Visit my shop to see available originals. …… Lately I just love the meditative process of creating patterns on paper. I use inks and acrylics to make an abstract flower pattern. These flowers then inspired my character’s posture and hair. Continue reading
Hear My Story. 9×12″ on bristol paper. Click here to see the originals available in my shop. ………. Sometimes I get to a point where all of the characters I’m painting feel the same. I’d been painting my flower patterned backgrounds for awhile. The circles of ink and acrylics in the background became a series of my flower girls… characters with wild circles and shapes...

Mystic. 11 x 14″ on canvas. (SOLD). See More Original Paintings Here. ……… I almost painted over this piece. I just couldn’t get rid of that circle on her face, so I thought I’d cover it all with papers and start again. But I stopped myself. I looked into her eyes and she hit my heart. I was reminded to let my imperfections be revealed. Continue reading
BE STRONG WITH WONDER. 11 x 14″ on canvas (SOLD). This painting is one of the projects in my Whimsical Animals – A Mini Course. ………. One of the hardest things to do is to let go and stay loose when painting. It’s so easy to try too hard and end up with a character that just looks like it is pasted into a landscape....

Untitled. 9×12″ ~ Inks, acrylics, oils, pencil, pen on bristol paper. ……. Lately I’ve been inspired to let go and do what comes easily. I was getting a bit bored with my flower patterned backgrounds, so I started to turn them into circles, which intuitively became my characters’ hair. I will add layers and layers to the backgrounds to get rich colors. Sometimes I’ll have... Continue reading
