Up In The Trees- Artwork!

Artwork in progress to go along with my "Up In The Trees" jewelry pieces. Plans include bookmarks, stationary, and prints.

Below are some recent shots of my current jewelry collection and experiments for the series: single nest pendants, cluster necklace charms, and both straight and cluster pendants... (I hope to build up enough inventory to open a booth at a local craft fest in the next year or two!)

Moby Scratcboard

An ongoing personal project that is about halfway done... <3

Happy Birthday Lou!

Acrylic painting of Lou's 240SX project car. My first FULLY acrylic on canvas painting! Also of a subject I tend to avoid: cars/machines... I'm especially proud of the wheels and smoke!

Cave Temple Ruins (Card Design)

Design work for a someday card design? I may see if Wizards of the Coast is interested...? Bottom is the base watercolors and micron, top is finalizing steps with pastel and colored pencil layered over. 

This painting may not be done!

Some Recent Scratchboard

The top may be used in future children's books, and the bottom was a gift for a very good friend... 

Scratchboard, Clayboard, India Ink, Micron Pens

I'm dreaming of a handmade Christmas...

 

 
This was the Christmas of handmade gifts! (2014)

From butterfly paintings (based off an original orange version from The Progressive Palette), to birds' nest jewelry, to bleach-designed t-shirts, to painted nesting dolls, this was the most creative Christmas I've had yet. (And I think everyone loved what they got, to my relief! : D)

Miranda's Hearth Final Poster

This is the design we went with! Two versions: the lower version lets the text breathe a bit more, but there's a part of me that likes the proportions of the top one even though the text is tighter...:
