Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh ……… I’ve noticed how much getting creative each day really brings me joy. To make time for it all, I’ve been painting lots of quick pieces on paper, which I am excited to share with you in my next online class... Continue reading
I have been having so much fun creating these digital collages with the iphone app Superimpose (something the lovely Misty Mawn turned me on to in her amazing Full Circle class). This is an example of a collage I created using the girl from my original mixed media painting SENDING STRENGTH. There are probably twenty layers in this version. And I love that the possibilities...

With all of my recent paintings and paintings on paper, I haven’t stopped to take photos of the process from start to finish. But this lion was different. This lion went from a flower girl to a giraffe before evolving into a winged lion. Most of my paintings on paper are very quick, so they don’t have a lot of layers. But this piece I...

And I have been painting a ton of these paintings on paper. They are full of layers. And, inspired by Mindy Lacefield and Alena Hennessy, I am finally adding my words... Continue reading
Anne of Green Gables is one of those books that I WISH I would have read when I was a young girl.

And right after, I strolled down to the Port Townsend book shop. Luckily they had the... Continue reading

I love looking back at my own painting videos because it reminds me how many layers and layers it took to get to the finished painting. That’s why I’m always sharing my paintings from start to finish because... Continue reading
2013 was such a blissful year. It left me feeling like I didn’t want to let go. I wanted to take all of the best things and bunch them up in a ball and carry them with me into the new year.
