Coming up on December 6th, Orange Spot Coffee will be hosting an art show for my new series, Ink from the Cutting Room Floor. I am excited to be there again and love getting people’s initial reactions to a new series. It is always interesting which pieces seem to impact the most people and how …
December 1st is finally here and my latest children’s book, You’re Weird. I Like You. is officially launched! This is honestly my biggest heart project to date. For some background on the book, here’s a shocker – I was a weird, little kid. Full disclosure – I was a shy, chubby, weird, little kid. Growing up in …
About this time last year, I wrote a post about telling people that you love them and all the different kinds of love in our lives that are worth acknowledging. Little did we know how much harder it would become to reach out to our loved ones and how much more important reaching out would …
So – 2020 was a real b*tch for most of us. I’ve struggled, I’ve been okay, and for many days I haven’t been okay. When lockdown first happened, I said to myself, “I’ve been working from home for a decade! I got this!” But this was no normal “work from home situation!” We couldn’t see friends. We couldn’t …
Ok, people. You survived the holidays. Check. You survived Valentine’s Day. Check. You’ve tolerated at least most of this winter season. Check. March is here, and it is time to clear the snow, puddles, or pollen (whichever applies to you) off of your patio and sip a spring cocktail! Whether your spring breaks are still …
I am sure the fact that Valentine’s Day is approaching is a surprise to no one. (The flippin’ heart candy was in stores before I took down my Christmas tree!) I also know that this holiday, like many others, can be a welcomed or dreaded event. I am hoping to help everyone focus on the …
Undoubtedly, you have already been bombarded with holiday commercials, black Friday promotions, and Christmas carols while still finishing the dregs of your Halloween candy leftovers (because, lets be honest, you finished the good candy long ago.) I love the holidays…decorating my house, singing along with the Beach Boys Christmas album, making cookies with my nieces …
In honor of fall and of National Coffee Day being held in many countries in late September and early October, we are raising a mug to our Coffee Critters. First launched in 2016, these caffeinated creatures have brought that morning zen like only the holy coffee bean elixir can bring. There are many thoughts out …
In the year and a half since I launched my You Do You series, it has been so much fun seeing in which of these critters people see themselves. Sometimes I could guess it a mile away, and sometimes people have inner weirdos you’d never predict. That is the best thing about art. Whether you …
One of the first series I put together was “Put a Monocle on It”. I have always loved drawing my quirky animal friends, but who doesn’t love making animals look smarter with perhaps a dash of pretension? Love a unicorn? Put a monocle on it. Love otters? Monocle. The formula was simple, but the personalities …
With Father’s Day this weekend, I thought I would post in honor of those who may deserve that honor this Sunday. Maybe you are a loving fur-dad to a dopey doberman or a diaper-changing dad of your joyful junior. Perhaps you filled the role of “dad” to someone who simply needed you to do so, …
Cheers to Fur-Dads, People-Dads, and Those In-Between Continue Reading »
I began my aquatic series a few years ago now and have updated it several times along the way. The newest version of the aquatic series now features an updated color scheme that is bound to give you all the coastal feels. This fresh new blue ombre captures the hues of sand, water, and sky …
