Here are a few pictures from the show.  I was too busy talking to get any photos with Laura or any other of the wonderful people I met that night.  The evening was so fun. I am a pretty shy and reserved person and don’t care much to be the center of attention, but the opening was a really good time. I think the people I met in Columbia, TN were the reason for the good time. Everyone was so welcoming and supportive.

People were asking curious questions about my process of making the stencil paintings and commented a lot on how colorful and playful they were.

One thing I loved and found ironic was hanging up my binder clip illustration with an actual binder clip. The picture is below, so you can see what I meant. How meta is that? And I met a woman who said the spool of thread drawing reminded her of all her mother’s sewing supplies. It made her happy to remember such a nice memory. Hearing that made me so happy. That’s the reason I make the playful art that I make, to bring people a sense of joy.

Who is ready for autumn? Not me! I feel like I’ve barely had a summer. It’s been a cool summer here in the Netherlands, and I am craving more sun and heat! But I think a lot of the northern hemisphere is already turning towards fall. I&rs
I just dropped my oldest off at college. My heart is breaking, but I’m trying to find the good parts about her moving out of the nest. One really fun thing we’ve done together this week is thrifting for housewares and setting up a home.
This coordinate pattern is inspired by corn on the cob. Can you see it? 🤣 🌽 One of my favorite summer treats is freshly grilled corn on the cob slathered in butter and salt and pepper. Yum. : #surfacepatterndesign #PatternMagic #SurfacePatternDes
From the garden to the kitchen. I drew these cute little kitchen things in a reductive matter. I filled the page with red and then started to erase and make the wonky shapes. Sometimes I find it easier to draw this way. It allows me to draw the gener
