I walk to work everyday. Sometimes I take different routes, but mostly it’s always the same path. I see a lot of the same things, but some days I notice things I’ve never seen before. It’s awesome. I love it. I am forever spoiled by my commute and when I inevitably have to drive to … Read More
A few months ago I started hardcore following some designers on Dribbble – and discovered that there’s a whole community there of amazing inspiration (a lot of copycat-ing too, but that’s how we learn, I guess). Anyway, I decided that I wanted in, and the user Second Eight was nice enough to give me one … Read More
Made a little yule log for everyone’s holiday season. It’s freakishly warm here in New England, but staying warm and cozy is still a top Christmas priority. Hope y’all have a good one.

Unnecessary amounts of color strike again: I gave this to my old college … Read More
Today I made up some thank you cards – something I’ve been meaning to get around to for awhile. Sending clients a little thank you after they are awesome enough to work with me seems like the least I can do. I’m always so thrilled to get to share in the passions of others and … Read More
I started this project about a week ago when I found myself a little extra time. It was inspired by this very lovely class by Mary-Kate McDevitt that was free on Skillshare a couple weeks back. She does a great job of laying out her whole process and if you’re at all interested in vintage … Read More
I painted this lovely lady a few months ago for an art test. She’s supposed to be loveable yet disgusting…so you can feel free let me know if I succeeded.
I actually love being asked for help. As an artist, I think I share the anxiety of a lot artistic people in constantly doubting my own worth as a creator. It doesn’t matter how many times I tell myself that I’m pretty great, there will always be something I can improve on. So when someone … Read More
