Gotta love tiny pads of paper to make little quick artworks on. And markers. And art prompts from my son, who drew one of our dogs as an ice cream cone, so I drew the other one.

Waves, now and then. I don’t often revisit the same subjects from the same angles like this, but it’s really interesting! I still like my old wave painting, but I can tell that I’ve developed my skills a lot in the four-ish years since painting that one. Switching from watercolor crayons to tube watercolors really helps too. I can get more depth and even more delicious colors out of tube and liquid watercolor. Maybe I should revisit some other old paintings like this!

A lot of cultures have myths about the "evil eye," and how to ward off curses directed at you. When I traveled in Greece and Turkey I saw lots of these blue and white Evil Eye warding charms, which inspired this stone.

I used the natural color of this rock, didn't paint the background - found it right here in our own Rillito River in Tucson. A little piece of the desert to brighten your space.

Portrait of a labradoodle (golden doodle? He’s a doodle, if nothing else 😄). Made for a young man who’s into comics, graphic novels, and of course his dog.
When I make a pet portrait, it’s not cookie cutter. It’s not the same painting every time from the same formula. I think about your pet, its personality, its habits and life, your style, your preferences, everything. It’s fully personal. And, as my clients will tell you, it’s worth it.

“Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater
Had a wife and couldn’t keep her
He put her in a pumpkin shell
And there he kept her very well.”
This nursery rhyme always struck me as odd...so in this painting you can interpret Peter’s wife’s feeling as you see fit, I made her expression ambiguous. I really love painting these little fantasy worlds in watercolor that tell their own stories.
