I finally caved to the Apple takeover and bought an iPhone to take with me on our roadtrip. So far it's been great and already proved its worth by allowing me to receive and reply to a few very important emails. Plus it's just fun! Assuming this blog post works out, it'll make posting on… Continue reading Hello from Portland!

Mmmmm bacon
Why yes, that IS bacon on my doughnut, thankyouverymuch. On my list of places to stop by while in Portland, my mister voted strongly in favor of Voodoo Donughts. We were not disappointed. Bacon sounds weird on a dessert, but the maple glaze and doughy goodness reminded me of bacon drizzled with syrup, sitting beside… Continue reading Mmmmm bacon
Alice in Wonderland Paintings
Alice and Dinah 8x10 print After many late nights in the studio, my Alice in Wonderland series of paintings is, though not quite finished, coming along swimmingly. I've released all 3 of the portraits (in progress here) featuring Alice and Dinah, the Mad Hatter and the Duchess. I do have one more to finish, but… Continue reading Alice in Wonderland Paintings
Olympic Recovery
Living in Vancouver, I wasn't particularly excited about the Olympics coming to our city, especially with all of the subsequent cuts to arts funding (slashed by 92%) and the serious lack of affordable housing. (And when I say "affordable housing", I mean reasonable for middle class families with 2 working parents. The homeless problem is… Continue reading Olympic Recovery

I couldn't care less about football, but fair's fair. My mister accompanied me to artsy fartsy schtuff, so I had to return the favor… Continue reading Show Pics
Printable Valentines
Last year I doodled some cute little Valentine's Day cards and put them up on the blog as a PDF file. I'm still smitten with them this year and I hope you will be too! You just have to download the file and then print it off at home onto some heavy paper or cardstock.… Continue reading Printable Valentines

Antique Lockets
I've been having so much fun turning my paintings into wearable art in the form of antique lockets and cameo pendants, but you probably wouldn't know that if you weren't able to make it out to any of my winter markets. Adding the new jewelery to my Etsy shop has been going at a snail-like… Continue reading Antique Lockets
