60s/70s Kitchen 

If you missed my post about my family's big move, we just moved form New Hampshire to Washington state. Camas, Washington to be exact, which is in the greater Portland, Oregon area. I'm excited to see what opportunities for my art this new place brings.  

So far I have learned these things in my short time here:

• The people here have to be the friendliest in the world
• slugs are disgusting and like to eat basil
• If you stop at a 4-way stop everyone just sits, even if it is their right of way

Finishing up a commission while winter storm Nemo gets started.

Woo hoo a drawing. Long overdue! This is the inspiration for tomorrow's workshop! Hope everyone is ready for some hard work! 

Big Move Coming

I apologize for not posting anything in a long time. My family and I will be moving from New Hampshire to Vancouver, Washington. I have spent the past couple of months repainting walls in the house, decluttering, and making it pretty to sell. It officially went on the market last week.

I don't forsee too much art making in the near future. I have 2 workshops coming up and a commission to do, but I will be focused on selling our house, then finding a new house and getting moved in. I will make a couple posts on my workshops so you can see what we did at them.

Next Saturday is my first workshop:

Saturday, January 26, 2013
10:00 - 4:00

Fisher 400 available in the US!!! & Squirrel Food

I am so excited that Fisher 400 is now available in the US. Fisher 400 is a sanded paper very much like UART. I love how it works with colored pencils and only use it for all my portraits. I'm sure if you search my blog you will find many mentions on my techniques on it.  

Here's the link on where to get it. .http://www.proartpanels.com/fisher400-proart-panels/

Squirrel Food 6"x18"

If you follow me on Facebook you might have seen me talking about y little squirrel friends. We've had these little red squirrel visitors on my back deck for a while now. I had never seen them before, or maybe I have but since they are the size of a chipmunk I may have assumed the speedy little guys were chipmunks. They have been so much fun to watch I had to find a way to put one in a still-life.
