New Drawings


Since having my beautiful son Sam I haven't really had the time to paint, although I've never been more inspired in my entire life! Mixing colors and getting into the painting zone isn't something that I can do for 5 minutes and put it down. Sometimes I wish I could work that way. So lately I've been drawing instead. I use Micron pens with a super fine point on bristol board. I also use metallic ink. They're really fun and I can easily stop and start the process.

They are currently available only at my Etsy store and at Ten Women Gallery in Venice, CA.

I'll be doing smaller, unframed drawings for the holidays. They'll be posted on Etsy.

My Work on Domino Magazine Online

My work was recently featured on Domino Magazine's website by the amazing Holly Blecker of Decor8. And the amazing work of my good friends Cathy & Outi is also featured. Yay!

Please check out Holly's blog for wonderful art and design finds. Click here to check out the feature in Domino. It's very exciting as that site gets tons of hits.

Thank you, Holly!

Hello!

My first blog entry. I had dinner last night with my good friends and fellow artists Marisa and Outi. A rare night out after having my son, Sam, almost 3 months ago. Once again, we had the "to blog or not to blog" conversation. I've always been intrigued by the whole blogging thing and really enjoy reading other blogs but when it came time to write my own I never thought I had anything to say. Well, I'm giving it a try.

It's always so nice to see my friends. I always walk away from our dinners feeling inspired and loved. Thank you Outi and Marisa and Cathy from New York. I'm so thankful to have you in my life.

As I write this my son (still feels so strange to say that and I think it's the first time that I wrote it) is next to me in his bouncy seat squealing and smiling at the light fixture above. It melts my heart. And so I thought it appropriate to have Sam be the first photo on my blog. He truly is amazing.
