Zombie Valentine's Day Paintings

"too late for love"

"my heart is yours"

I will have 2 new paintings in the upcoming "Zombies & Lusty Ladies" show at Zapow Gallery in downtown Asheville. It was so much fun painting my little creatures as zombies. (I couldn't quite figure out how to paint them as "lusty ladies".)

Both paintings are 4" x 4" and are $85 each. Click here to purchase paintings.

If you live in the Asheville area be sure to come to the opening. It's going to be a wild costume party and art opening. Click here for more details on the show.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

2011-11-22T07:33:00.000-08:00

Sam brought this "Thankfulness Block" home from school this week. He has not been all that into crafts so this made me very happy. He picked clippings from magazines of things he is thankful for to put on his block of wood. Dessert, Halloween, Norbit (the bearded dragon class pet), swimming and home. I absolutely love it.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

New Painting for Halloween

2011-10-16T18:39:00.000-07:00

"it's gonna be a long night"

My son Sam is REALLY into Halloween this year so I wanted to paint (for the first time) a painting for Halloween. I'm not really a fan of black and orange so I decided to go in a dark and spooky direction. I also really needed an image for the October page of my upcoming 2012 calendar.

Last year Sam was a knight in shining armor which included a sparkly cape that I attached myself (and that is pretty much the extent of my sewing skills). This year he is a zombie skeleton and the costume is pretty terrifying. What a difference a year makes!

And stay tuned...calendars and mini paintings/ornaments will be released in the next few weeks.

The painting is 12" x 12" and is titled "it's gonna be a long night" and is available here. Prints are also available here.

Happy Halloween!

Featured on Little Brown Rabbit Today

2011-08-29T13:29:00.000-07:00

I am the featured artist on "Mummy Monday" today on the wonderful Little Brown Rabbit blog. I have "known" Emma for years and she is always so kind with comments and has even purchased an original painting from me. You can read about what an average day is like for me here.

Thank you so much to Emma for doing this. It was very difficult to find the time to paint once I had Sam but for all you new artist mom's out there that are struggling let me just say that it does get easier. The age 4 is a magical age and it comes with a lot of independence. Hang in there!

Thanks again, Emma!

First Day of Pre-School

2011-08-22T12:46:00.001-07:00

Sam's first day of pre-school was today. Sniff, sniff. Last night I went into his room and he was sitting on the floor with his backpack. I asked him what he was doing and he said "Packing my backpack for school tomorrow." I looked in the backpack and he had 4 boxes of crayons and some Star Wars figures in there. So. Damn. Cute.

Ian and I both got teary-eyed dropping his off this morning but as soon as Sam got inside the school he turned to us with a big smile and said "Bye".

Picking him up was bittersweet. As soon as he saw us he ran to us with a look that I can only describe as "joyful". He was so happy and excited to tell us about his day. And then when he got close to us he fell and skinned his knee pretty badly. He cried all the way home but in between the tears he told us how much fun he had at school.

Ugh. It's going too fast. But I'm so proud of him.

New Originals on Exotic Hardwood

2011-07-14T06:19:00.000-07:00

"ready?"

"waiting to fly"

"nothing better"

"solo mission"

I've pretty much taken the summer off. We had a huge landscaping project in our backyard and it took up ALL of my time and energy. But now that it's complete (I will post pics soon) I wanted to get a little painting in before I leave for vacation. Yay! We're going to Lake Champlain in Vermont. Can't wait to swim everyday and relax. Now I can feel good about doing nothing because I actually got some paintings finished.

I bought the wood for these pieces a few months ago. Walking into Cormack International is heaven for me. There are so many choices of gorgeous wood to choose from. But I fell in love with these.

Hope you are all having a great summer!

New Original on Exotic Hardwood

2011-05-24T13:22:00.000-07:00

"wild at heart"

I just couldn't resist going back to Cormack International to look at the beautiful hardwoods there. I found some really interesting blocks in wood that I haven't used before. So, needless to say I had to start painting on them. This first one is titled "wild at heart" and is on African Wenge which is a very hard wood used for floors and musical instruments. It is gorgeous. Very rich and almost black. Love! Hope you enjoy. There will be more...

Happy Mother's Day!

2011-05-08T15:16:00.000-07:00

Today at Bent Creek

This was the best Mother's Day ever! Started out with a delicious husband-made breakfast of strawberry/blueberry pancakes and a beautiful card made by my son and then we went for a beautiful hike at Bent Creek. After lunch I decided to take a nap. My son (who stopped napping months ago) came in with his Teddy Bear when I was already asleep and snuggled next to me and took a nap with me. Heaven! Then off to a local kids festival where I saw a lot of my mommy friends and now I'm waiting for my husband to finish cooking dinner - shrimp with goat cheese and tomatoes. Yum! Such a wonderful day with my boys!

I'm really feeling the love today. And I feel so fortunate to have my own amazing family plus an amazing mother who has always been there for me. She taught me what being a good mother is all about. Thank you, Mom...for everything.

And the winner of my Mother's Day Giveaway is...Jenni Allen. Please get in touch with me offline and give me your address and let me know which cards you would like.

Happy Mother's Day!

"darling one"

"kiddo"

"fly to me"

"leaving home"

Four new Mother's Day paintings and prints have just been released. They are available in my Etsy shop.

Time is going so fast and Sam is getting so big. He starts pre-school in the fall and it will be the first time that he'll be away from me for an extended period of time. It's just a few hours a day but it marks the beginning of something wonderful, but also sad for me. That was the inspiration for "leaving home". I can't even imagine what all day kindergarten is going to be like or (gasp) college!

I will be having my Mother's Day giveaway again this year...stay tuned.

Happy Holidays!

2010-12-24T11:28:00.000-08:00

All of our presents are wrapped and under the tree. Tomorrow is going to be a big day, especially for Sam. This year he is into superheroes so that is pretty much the theme. Looking forward to a lazy day of opening presents, eating our traditional cinnamon rolls and hanging out with my boys. It feels kind of strange to have nothing to do but wait for Christmas morning. But I'm just going to go with it.

Happy Holidays to you and your family!

Holiday Drawings

2010-12-09T18:12:00.000-08:00

"happy holidays"

"happy new year"

While cleaning and rearranging my studio I came across these 2 holiday drawings so I decided to list them. The timing couldn't be more perfect. Also, they kind of makes me miss my little creatures. I might have to start putting them into my new darker style of painting.

Drawings are available here.

New, Darker Paintings

2010-11-16T08:03:00.001-08:00

"underflow"

"not again"

"sugarcoated"

"overkill"

"used to be me"

"crybaby"

"dying inside"

"afterthought"

"underlings"

"can I stay here tonight?"

"buzzkill"

"party girl"

"wallflower"

"drama queen"

This summer I was in a real funk with my art. My flat, bright colors and little creatures just weren't doing it for me anymore. Also, I've been painting mostly small paintings so with that limited canvas size I felt like I had pretty much done all I could do. So, I decided to shake things up a bit. I really wanted to get back to the darker work that I started out doing. I felt like I was "cuted out". I missed painting my sad flowers.

And...I discovered BLACK. In all of my color classes the one thing that was consistently taught was that adding black to a color was the quickest way to suck all the life out of it. Well, in my experience that has been true. Every time I've tried to add black to darken a color it immediately lost the spark. So, I avoided it like the plague. In fact my tube of carbon black looked like it was brand new before I started this series. I'm still not using black in my mixes but I'm using straight up black. And I love it. It's so harsh and dark. So unlike what I have been doing. And that was exactly what I was looking for.

I also discovered glazes. With most of my previous work I used very flat colors. Not much blending at all. One day I was talking about how frustrated I was with painting to my dear friend Cathy and I told her that I could envision what I wanted to paint but I didn't know how. I wanted to paint colors that blended together. And she suggested glazes. Well, I had a few color glazes and started painting with them and I absolutely loved it (thanks Cathy!). They are VERY slow drying and for me that took some getting used to. I use a hair dryer with fast-drying acrylics! So, it was almost painful for me to let something sit overnight before I could fix it or add to it. But overall a great exercise in patience for me.

I might get back to doing my little creatures at some point but for now this feels good. Every time I would show one of my new paintings to my 3-year-old son Sam he would tell me that it needed a creature. So I put some ghostly creatures on a couple of them. But I think the fact that he recognized that there weren't creatures in these tells me that it was time to shake things up a bit. It has been a long time since I painted anything without them.

It was so wonderful to love painting again. Ideas were flowing. I couldn't wait to paint when I woke up in the morning. And when I was painting with glazes I didn't really know what it was going to look like. Challenging, but very rewarding. I hope you like them.

Prints are available of all paintings.

I've finished 3 more paintings on that gorgeous exotic hardwood. That's it for my hardwood supply. These are so gratifying to paint for me. So simple and clean.

I have also been furiously painting some new pieces just in time for the holidays. These are VERY different from my other stuff and I'm really excited about them. They will be released on or before this Thursday.

Hardwood paintings are available here.

Visionary Living Feature

2010-11-06T14:17:00.000-07:00

A couple of months ago I was asked to write an article for the beautifully designed Texas magazine Visionary Living. They wanted to know what keeps me motivated and inspired, what challenges I faced going out on my own, and if I could offer any words of wisdom for those wanting to make the leap to follow their passions. It seems that a lot of people out there really want to leave their jobs and follow their dreams. I get asked these questions a lot through emails. I think partly because of my bio page on my website and how miserable I was at my last 9-5 job. So, I hope I can help someone out there to make the leap. It has definitely been challenging (especially in this economy) but I have never for one second doubted my decision.

You can read the magazine online. Just keep clicking to see my page (shown above) if you want to read my article. I think it is the 29th page in.

Hope you're all having a nice weekend. It is FREEZING here and I have a terrible cold. Hoping tomorrow will be better.

The Dry Goods Shop

2010-10-01T12:05:00.000-07:00

This is what the store front used to look like.

I am a bit late on this but wanted to post it anyway. My prints can now be found at The Dry Goods Shop in West Asheville (right down the street from where I live). When we moved here 2 years ago we would drive by this store front all the time and wonder about it. It was called Meadows Dry Goods & Shoes. There was stuff inside but it looked like no one had been there in years. Like one day someone just said "I've had it with this Dry Goods store," and up and left. But then Leigh Anne Hilbert fell in love with the building and opened up her own Dry Goods Shop which features indie designers. You can find great clothing, jewelry and art. Leigh Anne is now a friend of mine and it's great being able to pop in and say hi when I'm out walking with Sam. If you live in Asheville, please check it out.

Happy Friday everyone!! My mom is coming this weekend so we are in deep cleaning mode. The weather is gorgeous. Just a slight crispness to the air and I am loving it. I'm ready to put the shorts and Teva's away.

New Work for Enormous Tiny Art Show

2010-08-23T11:42:00.001-07:00

"you'll never know"

"if only"

"petaling"

"born new"

"onliest"

I will have 12 paintings in the September Enormous Tiny Art Show in Portsmouth, NH. I love this show because, as you know, I like "small" and none of the paintings in this show are over 10" x 10". They always have a great mix of artists too. I am honored to be a part of this show again.

I painted 5 new pieces for the show. I loved working with just white for my exotic wood pieces so I wanted to continue that. But I decided to add some really bold colors and...my creatures are back. I missed them...just a little.

Also my dear friend Cathy Nichols' gorgeous work is in this show and my new e-friend Laura Berger too. Please look online at their beautiful work in this show.

If you live in the Portsmouth area be sure to check out the show. I would love to go but we are too far away. You can check out all of the work is online here.

The show opens September 1st and runs through September 27th. The opening reception is Friday, September 3rd from 5-8 p.m.

Two New Galleries

2010-08-19T10:18:00.000-07:00

I am pleased to announce that my prints are now sold at Elementality located in the Asheville Mall and Art & Soul Marketplace in Brevard, NC. Both are great stores so please check them out if you live in the area.

It has been extremely HOT here in Asheville and I find myself wishing for Fall to come. I love summer and it is by far my favorite season but this summer has been brutal. We don't have air conditioning in our house. I've never been a big fan of it but I would have definitely used it in the last couple of months. So do you hear that Fall? I'm ready. As I'm sure a lot of you are too.

Have a good weekend!

My Work in Artful Blogging Magazine

2010-08-02T10:38:00.001-07:00

A few months ago I was asked to write an article for Artful Blogging Magazine and I just got my copy today. My work is featured over 3 spreads and it looks really great. My image "baby mine" is also on the cover (upper right). I'm so happy with the way it looks. I had never really looked at this magazine but I must say it's gorgeous. Beautifully printed. And I should know because print production was my career for many years. I know that Barnes & Noble carries this magazine and probably Border's too. Please check it out next time you are in a book store.

T-Shirts!!

2010-06-14T20:15:00.000-07:00

"rooted"

"why not me?"

close up of front of shirt

close up of little creature at bottom of shirt

I’m so excited to release these limited edition t-shirts. Both shirts are from Alternative Apparel and are made out of very soft organic cotton. The silk screened images are hand-pulled locally in Asheville, NC. The fabric is very light and comfy which is perfect for the summer. I’ve been wearing mine all weekend because it is HOT here. And the scoop neck on the t’s is very flattering. I’m starting with just women’s shirts but plan to do men’s shirts eventually.

The image on the blue (Earth Ocean) shirt is titled “rooted” and the image on the green (Earth Green) shirt is titled “why not me?” The green shirt is screened in 2 locations. Look closely for the lonely creature at the bottom. The shirts come in S, M, L & XL and $28.00 each.

New Paintings! New Style!

2010-05-24T17:50:00.000-07:00

tentacle on African Mahogany

flower on Purpleheart wood

jellyfish flower on African Padauk

fiddlehead on Canarywood

dandelion on Bubinga wood

tree on Sapele wood

flower on African Mahogany

dotted flower on Purpleheart wood (this wood is a gorgeous deep violet color but it will eventually turn more brown)

mushroom on African Mahogany

fern on Sapele wood

I am very excited to release these new paintings. I've been wanting to do something new for a while but that's easier said than done. Then I discovered a local place (Cormark International) that sells exotic hardwood and I fell in love. The first time I went I only bought 3 pieces and once I started staining them I knew I would go back. This wood is unbelievably gorgeous and just comes alive when it's stained. I used a clear stain so I wouldn't interfere with the natural color of the wood. The next time I went back the owner took me to another warehouse where he showed me even more amazing wood...Pink Ivory, Zebrawood, Olivewood. I know I'll go back for more.

All of the pieces are painted with white only. This was very challenging for me since color is so much a part of what I do. But I didn't want any color competing with the natural beauty of this wood. So I used transparent and opaque white for the shading and let the color of the wood come through for contrast. So. Much. Fun. I absolutely loved doing these and have gotten used to seeing them on my white fireplace. I hope you enjoy them too. I might start going bigger after these. After all of my 4" x 4" the last couple of years I am really itching to get back to bigger pieces.

I really needed this change of pace. I was stuck in a rut with my little creatures. I'm not saying that I won't paint them again but they are definitely on vacation for now.

Happy Mother's Day!

So sorry I didn't post this yesterday but the winner of my Mother's Day Giveaway is...Kirin! Congratulations, Kirin! My mom just picked your name out of the hat. We've been having a great time with my mom. We just got back from visiting the Biltmore Estate which is beautiful, especially the grounds. Sam did a great job, even on the tour, but he did ask when we were in one of the bedrooms "Isn't there a pillow I can play with or something?"

So, Happy Mother's Day to everyone. Your comments were so much fun to read and very touching.

p.s. Kirin - please just make a comment with your email and I will email you to get your address and the 2 prints that you want.

The winner will receive 2 free prints from my 2010 Mother's Day collection.

New Paintings for Mother's Day

2010-04-18T13:22:00.000-07:00

"time out"

"up all night"

"I can't remember my life before you"

"float close"

"tiny sprout of mine"

"please sleep"

"not so fast"

"I miss you when you're asleep"

"sorry"

"my heart is full"

"you can do it"

"I love you so"

"little one"

Mother's Day is in 3 weeks and I just finished my annual collection of Mother's Day paintings. This was the second year that I've painted these and they were so much fun. It was really interesting to see what aspects of motherhood were coming through. "Time out" and "not so fast" are both timely considering that Sam is in the "terrible two's". But I still think of him as my baby and I do still miss him when he's sleeping.

Miss Scarlet in the Parlor Show this Weekend

2010-03-26T10:25:00.001-07:00

New Paintings for Valentine's Day

2010-01-31T15:59:00.000-08:00

"swoon"

"where is this Cupid guy already?"

"I love you more than...blah, blah, blah"

"I knew you were out there"

"you're all I have"

"first date"

"do you ever think of me?"

"waited so long"

"the lonely 1" -- Named after one of my favorite Wilco songs which almost makes me cry every time. Listen to it here.

"take me with you"

"safe & warm"

"in serious like"

"unloved"

"I found you"

"unrequited"

I have 15 new paintings in my Etsy shop just in time for Valentine's Day. Whew! This was a lot of work, especially for me. As some of you know (Cathy) I generally have a hard time with the whole hearts and flowers thing. It just isn't that interesting to me. I love, love, love my husband but I still find the darker side of love much more appealing.

So, that being said, I do have some lovey-dovey paintings in this series but I also have some that show the lonely and tortured side of romance. After all, before I met my husband I can remember many a lonely Valentine's night cursing the holiday and all of the unforeseen expectations that go along with it.

These paintings are 3" x 3" and are $75 each. And with the purchase of a painting or print I'm also offering a free note card (assuming that it's a Valentine's Day gift). I can make cards from any of my images so just write the name of the image that you want for your free card in the "message to seller".

Happy Valentine's Day!!

New Drawings on Etsy

2009-12-27T19:38:00.000-08:00

"is this happiness?"

"where do I belong?"

"upswing"

"strange connection"

Well, these drawings aren't really new. I just kind of forgot about them. I got out my sketchbook tonight and there they were. I did them a while ago, maybe when I was doing my daily drawings...anyway, here they are.

We've been having a wonderful, snowy (and snotty) holiday week. We got Sam a drum set for xmas and it's been wonderful to see him go to town. Also, pretty painful on our poor eardrums. (Toddler Protective Earmuffs are on their way from Amazon!)

I'm also obsessed with Coconut Records which is Jason Schwartzman's band. This was a gift from my hubby and it is fantastic. I cannot stop listening to it.

The drawings are available at my Etsy shop.

Happy New Year!!

2009-12-18T12:37:00.001-08:00

We've been blasted with snow today. I love it! We have about 6 inches now but are expected to get around 8". It's so nice to stay inside all toasty warm and look out at the beautiful snow. So glad we don't have to go out again. Let's hope it lasts until Christmas!

Happy, happy!

New Images FINALLY Added to my Website

2009-09-24T11:14:00.000-07:00

It's been 2 years since my website has been updated. Ugh...too long! Although I designed the website myself (but did not do the HTML) and I love the design, it isn't exactly easily updated. But I'm very proud of myself for figuring it out in Dreamweaver. So... new images from the past 2 years have now been added to my gallery pages. Yay! And I finally have links to my Etsy pages too.

Feels so good to accomplish this. It's been bugging me for a while. It was actually kind of fun once I got started. Nice to use that side of my brain for a change. But can anyone who works with Dreamweaver on a regular basis tell me why something as important as the Layers Palette is under the subheading "Others"? Makes no sense to me! Took me forever to find it.

Have a good weekend!

5 Year Wedding Anniversary Today!

2009-09-04T12:06:00.001-07:00

Happy Anniversary to my amazing husband. The past 5 years (and the 3 before that) have absolutely been the best of my life. Love, love, love that husband of mine!

25 ways my life is different from a year ago

2009-08-31T08:45:00.000-07:00

One year ago today my husband, one-year-old son and I began our cross-country journey from Los Angeles (population 9 million) to Asheville, NC (population 73,000).

For the past 20 years I’ve lived in some really big cities (Chicago, New York, Los Angeles). Everyday I’m amazed at how different my life is now in this small mountain community. I wasn’t sure what to expect after living the city life for so many years but I adjusted much better than I expected. I was definitely ready for the change. I feel really fortunate to have been able to pick-up and move the way we did and I look back on the packing, cross-country driving, house hunting/closing, unpacking and I feel exhausted just remembering it all. I think about the differences in my life everyday so I thought I’d post them...

I…

Am paying off a mortgage rather than paying rent to a crazy/mean landlady. (And our mortgage is less than half of what our L.A. rent used to be.)

Have a compost pile.

Spend most days outside hiking, swimming, painting with Sam and even (once) floating down the Green River in an inner tube (not with Sam).

Have met some amazing new friends…but miss my L.A. friends dearly.

Wear Teva sandals (which I used to think were hideous and still kinda do) everyday.

Have a studio with a door (actually 2 doors) instead of the dining room in the middle of the house.

Have painted more this year than the last few years combined.

Pay attention to the weather report.

Have realized that my hippie-crystal-stick deodorant is not effective in humid climates.

Know where my umbrella is.

Have a library card.

Miss having 2 NPR stations to choose from. We only get NPR after 3:00 p.m. here.

Know all of the neighbors on our street.

Am amazed at the never-ending list of things to do when you own a house.

Do not fear that our stroller will be stolen off our front porch (like it was in L.A.)

Am still amazed that during Asheville rush hour it only takes me an additional 5 minutes to get home.

Must order most art supplies online (rather than go to one of 4 art supply stores that used to be within a mile from my L.A. house).

Know what poison ivy looks like.

Have re-discovered how annoying mosquitoes are.

Am at least 5 hours (vs. 10 minutes) from the ocean.

Will probably go to the ocean more than I did in L.A.

Cannot see any movie that I want (apparently Asheville is not considered a “select city”).

Run into someone I know pretty much everywhere I go here.

Go to sleep listening to frogs and crickets.

Think to myself everyday “I love it here”.

New Paintings for Lily Moon Show

2009-08-12T12:08:00.000-07:00

"too happy" - 5" x 5". My original plans were to paint something similar to an Echinacea flower. I love the way the petals grow downward. They're really beautiful but not as "perky" as most flowers. But once I started painting it took on a life of it's own. But at least you know what my inspiration was.

"can I come home now?" - 5" x 5". The leaves on the tree are metallic copper.

"nice to me" - 5" x 5". The pom poms are lightly "sprinkled" with metallic silver dots.

"with abandon" - 19" x 7" - details and mandalas painted with metallic copper. I started this painting in Los Angeles well over a year ago which explains the title. Once again, this scan is not very good. Something about the wood grain or brush strokes showing through really messes things up. I brought it out and finished it a couple of weeks ago. It was a tough piece to do because it is very glossy (which hurts my eyes after a while) and it was very difficult to get the colors to look accurate on this intense orange. I think that's why I abandoned it in the first place. I'm pleased with the result but man, it took a long time to get there!

All of these paintings will be available online the day of the show at 6:00 p.m. PST. Click here for more info on the show.

Bat!

2009-08-12T11:58:00.000-07:00

Okay, it has been a crazy 24 hours. Last night my husband heard a rustling behind our blinds in our bedroom and he went to investigate and a bat flew out! I was pretty much already asleep when this happened and woke up to my husband's strange-sounding voice saying "Oh my god!!" Well, needless to say I didn't go back to sleep for a while. We ended up sleeping on an air mattress in my studio. We couldn't find the bat last night but my husband found it this morning under one of the flaps of the blind. It was really creepy looking. We tried to capture it but it got away and I let out a scream that I don't think I've ever heard before. Blood-curdling, I would call it. Anyway, animal control came out to get it this morning. Phew! Crazy night. We are definitely country folk now.

I wish I had gotten a picture of it for the post but every time I think of it I get chills so maybe it's a good thing that I'm sparing all of you.

Best Birthday Ever!

2009-07-25T12:21:00.001-07:00

My birthday was last week and we took a trip to Lake Lure, NC to celebrate on Friday. It was so beautiful and only 45 minutes from where we live. We swam in the lake surrounded by mountains and then we rented a canoe and ate lunch on the water. It was so peaceful and beautiful and I felt so grateful to have the life that I have. I've been a bit introspective since then. I'm trying to come up with some new paintings for a Seattle show in August but I'm having a hard time. I've just been enjoying the lazy summer and my birthday week.

Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend.

My Pillows at Urban Outfitters

2009-07-08T11:43:00.000-07:00

Pillows featuring my painting titled "mylo" are now at Urban Oufitters. I don't think they're being sold online yet but they are definitely in stores. Yay! The color is different from my original image but the pillow has a nice distressed look to it that I really like. They measure 18" x 18" and are solid green on the back. I love the tag with my name on it on the back! Unfortunately, we don't have a store here in Asheville so if you see them in stores let me know what you think.
