When I see something inspiring, I stop to take a look… and maybe take a photo.

I seem to have photographed several hearts throughout the years as I’m looking through my archives…but here’s a new one I took in Santa Fe.

Detail from "she always has to stay, and then leave at the same time. on the outside looking in..."

It’s time again for The Atomic Sketch Event to host their monthly art madness on Thursday 1/26 from 6-11pm at the Green Eye Lounge (2403 W. Homer).  In addition to live art, this month’s panelists were invited to hang their work for a group show.  I’m honored to be part of the fun and will have 2 new pieces on display.  I’ll also be making on the spot drawings for $5-$10 or even for free…so for the love of ART, come on out and show your support!

Finding inspiration in the park at Site, Santa Fe

I recently visited New Mexico (one of my favorite states!) and found inspiration in so many ways.  You’ll see a strong influence in my color palette from the Land of Enchantment, finding it’s way into my current mixed media works.

I’m on the panel and will be doing live drawing/painting on Thursday 12/29, from 6-11pm at the Green Eye Lounge for the Atomic Sketch Event!  This is a great opportunity to get art at an affordable price or even free and support local artists.  Yay fun!
