I Have a passion for Design...and Art...and everything that smells like it.

Whether it's graphic design for a book cover or an idea for a sculpture that I saw in my head upon going to sleep, my mind is always creating and I feel like I'm dying when stagnant...unless it's in PURPOSEFUL REST and contemplation or just "being". 
Being made in the image of the creator has given us ALL a "gift" of creation
and we are not satisfied until we find some form of it.
- Me.

​Logo Design 

I've always enjoyed helping others to nail down their branding and identity. Check out some of my logos over the last few decades. They can be quite fun if you love typography. Click the link below to see my logo design portfolio.

Portraiture

In this age of a camera in the hands of everybody over the age of 8 (maybe), "selfies" are the rage and parents have enough images of their children on their phone or on social media, but some people treasure a hand sketch of a loved one. Check out my colored pencil and graphic portraits. Some of them are memorials to loved ones who have passed and some celebrate a new season of life.

My Children's Book:
It's HERE! The "Baby" is finally birthed​and Polly went to market!

Inspired by my daughter’s entrepreneurial spirit since the age of 6, Polly’s Pink Piggy Parlor was written 18 years ago with her in mind and was a labor of love. While the book drew some interest from a few publishers, it was put on a shelf when more pressing (medical) matters caused life to run in a different direction but has now come to life, and is for sale on Amazon. Polly’s Pink Piggy Parlor COLORING BOOK illustrates the story plus more pages for younger ages as well.

Painting

SO it's been 30 years since I've picked up a brush but IT'S ON! Below are some oldies along with my most recent works. I'm moving on to watercolor after the oil and recently am exploring photography style pyrography ( burning wood) as my Taylor guitar begs a Beatles mural (did I just say "mural"?). Check back for more later.

Book Cover Design

Designing book covers for authors who are finally able to see a "face to the baby" brings a great amount of satisfaction in helping another birth their dream. Its what I've been doing for the past 8 years and it's brought in some record sales for my clients (one client's book increased sales 1200% in the first month of the book's redesign release on Amazon, and has gone on to win over 20 awards for the book series with some of those awards being the cover design).  Check out my designs on the link below and contact me if you wish to see other forms of advertising such as LOGOS, bookmarks, posters, packaging, etc. Click here or the link below to see my BOOK COVER PORTFOLIO.

Sculpture

I get to PLAY IN THE DIRT! My newest adventure is sculpture with clay and a few multi-media projects planned. This series at right is called "WOUNDED" and I'm still experimenting with finishing methods and most of these pieces you see are still in progress but I hope to speak to the wounded heart and the many different looks it has. 
SLIDE THROUGH MY SCULPTURE REEL BELOW!

Painted Furniture

My new adventure of painting furniture, though it may be short as the garage can only store so much!  
Painting furniture with chalk paint, gently restoring old & antique pieces and creating something amazing.   Unfortunately this venture was short lived as my back could not handle the process.
 

OTHER fun stuff ! (need I say more?)
