My dad recently became obsessed with the Jib Jab video "Tree Slaughter". As seen here,

I decided to make him a maquette of the final tree, He is not yet finished, i'm working on a mini tree skirt, and baby presents to go under the tree. He is 11 inches tall. I will post better lit images upon his completion.

The Biddle Gallery (http://www.biddlegallery.com/) in Wyandotte, MI is having a Halloween show. It includes myself , and other great artist, such as Brent Harris ( www.Robotchicks.com) Each artist had to make a digital pumpkin. I made an upside down bat. I also made 3 outdoor themed multimedia paintings, 5 spooky cupcakes (a mix of watercolor, acrylic, and paper mache), 5 Day of the dead candy skulls ( Paper Mache, glitter, glow in the dark paint, acrylic) and a new line of screen printed plush toys ( Screen printed by my friend Ken at his new business located in Clawson, MI (http://www.triple-thread.com/). CandyCorn, and two types of bats (Flying fox, and egyptian fruit bat, inspired my my volunteer work at the bat zone http://www.batconservation.org/content/BatZone.html) Attached are some pictures from the opening!

Postcard Series...




I'm making a series of postcard's this is the first,

Art around the world...

So as I mail dino's and paintings I've sold out I'm posting them on here.
Here short description about the paintings, These belong to Amelia and Mar's in Oakland, California, the cupcake is from a series of 15, this one was lemon/lime sunshine. It was a play on textures, It's a lot of acrylic layers over a watercolor wrapper. The Squid and baby Jellyfish, it was a play with colors, and sea creatures. A series of 30. The Sketch is not mine, but i love that my paintings often find homes next to other great pieces of art...
These live in Royal Oak, Michigan with Emma. The Green Squid and Seahorse were my favorite of the series, the baby orange octopuss, is only 2 by 3 inches, and was my least favorite. I love that she put them together, and again my art finds a home next to such awesome pieces!
A new card! I made this for my mom's birthday! Mixed media, Watercolor, Acrylic, cut-outs, and glitter!
