  • Thoughts on Forks

    Perspective matters. What do they think of all our discarded items?

  • Sketchbook

    Between projects and learning new software, I have been turning to my sketchbook as an outlet for doodling ideas and keeping my art moving forward. I take 30 minutes…

  • Murder Muffins

    The drawing was inspired by a phrase I heard today when a woman described her cat killing a bird as her “little murder muffin.” It made me laugh how…

  • Chocolate Doughnut Dingo

    Quick little critter drawing of a rare dingo. In Procreate on the iPad, I like to start with some shapes from Liza Glanz’s kit, then challenge myself to turn…
