Where elements combine
I loved the time during the holidays. It was quiet, it was just the three of us home, we easily moved around each other, and I was able to get a lot done. I nestled into my own space and just started producing work. I believe I was able to complete as many illustrations asContinue reading “Where elements combine”

A New Friend
One night I was playing with clay making specimens when this little dude came along. His expression caught my affection and I knew something more was meant for him than being a locked up creature in a jar. He quickly made the transition to my sketchbook. We are getting to know one another now. HereContinue reading “A New Friend”
