Herbert Mingles With Meerkats

On his latest trip, Herbert found himself in the company of some rather silly little creatures. They all liked to pick a direction and stare off endlessly. Herbert joined in to see what all the fuss was about. Last I checked, he was still with the meerkats, waiting for something to happen.

The Bay in Gold and Grey

I’m really excited about the way this painting came out. Another from an Instagram shot. I tried to keep it pretty loose… I definitely have a tendency to fuss until I bludgeon every ounce of freshness from the painting. I’m happy to note that I didn’t do that here. I kept the values lighter than

Pink Moon

So this was a tricky painting. I’m not entirely sure that I feel like I pulled it off. I was driving up to go for a sunrise hike and saw the moon peeking over a hill – it was setting quickly. I barely managed to get this picture of it, but I wanted to try

A View from the Headlands

I started and finished this little painting last night. I got so wrapped up in the clouds that I didn’t realize it was 1am (way past my bedtime)! I snapped the source photo on a hike around the Bay. I can’t help by feel incredibly fortunate to be in such a beautiful place. I’m really

Big Skies

Several years ago, I was driving from Texas to Louisiana, and I remember feeling dwarfed by the weight of the skies. They seemed so huge and oddly heavy. Recently, a friend of mine was in Austin. She snapped a photo on her way to the airport that inspired this little painting. Available for purchase here.

Costa Rica

So, I’m back from a month long trip from Costa Rica and I’ve been painting up a storm. I’ve been adding prints to my shop. Here are a few examples

New Birds and a New Bot!

Wow, it’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything… Likely because I’ve been hard at work, painting up a storm. Some of the results! A new Robot! Meet Spin, the resident DJ.  He’s available to take home here. I’ve also been on a bit of a little bird frenzy. A few of my latest friends:  ”My
