Chiseler Enjoys a Hot, Summer Day

Chiseler's such a gentle soul. I'm glad he decided to stick around.

This Drink's on Me, and It's Free!

I'm donating this original painting titled This Drink's on Me for Paper Kite Studio's Free Art Anniversary Show on Friday, August 21 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Always looking for ways to recycle old goods, I used a discarded kitchen cabinet door for the surface of this acrylic painting.

Polka Dots

I design the majority of my work using traditional painting methods, but last week I had the opportunity to play around with Photoshop CS4. I designed several 12"x12" squares using polka dots. I love how the lime green background subtly changes to turquoise in this design sample.
