New Design

Here's a piece of design work - a mock layout for the Cleveland Zoo, both main page and a content page. The webpage design is new for me, so I'm pretty happy with this!

I've been working on some drawings for my sister, more black and white drawings, and hopefully some notecards/greeting cards, soon, too. Maybe a painting.... more to post soon.

New Inspirations

Today was a wonderful day on the internet - I found quite a few new sites and artists worth sharing. Check near the top of my of 'My Favorite Places' for Tauba Auerbach and Richard Sarson, two artist/designers, as well as Pitch Design Union, yet another blog to obsessively check!

More Love for Etsy

My blog has been much neglected now that I've been posting my work on Etsy. Many relistings have resulted in a sale... although just one sale, its been enough to keep me believing in it. Here are some of the pieces I've been putting up for sale:

Busy Busy Busy

I've been adding a lot of images into cyberspace, mainly through Etsy, and now, Flickr. I'm really happy to have work for sale on Etsy again. Check it out!

New Year, New Work

all of my graphic design work from last semester:

Touching Base

Many months since my last update... I've been busy with various things and some of them have been art related. I am now being represented by both Local Girl Gallery and Lake Erie Artists (links on the side.) Be sure to check out Lake Erie Artists in particular, as my name and link to my work is posted right on her site. How exciting!

I've been drained dry - both in my physical work (I almost have no paintings in my possession right now!) and inspirationally. I haven't painted in a while, so I'm anticipating some changes in my work in the near future.... In the mean time, here is what I have done most recently

In my absence...

...this is the work I have created. I haven't been painting as much. In fact, I haven't been doing too much of anything, at least nothing that has produced results to show. I'm hoping with the new season of summer brings new inspirations (and motivations!)
