Back in the Saddle!




Hi All!
It's a new year (after a few, actually)!
A new house!
A NEW STUDIO!!!

A lot has happened since the last post.  Our family moved to a small town in the Gold Country of California about a year ago, and I'm starting to get my art-legs back (you know, like sea-legs, only without the eyepatch and peg-leg).  Since living here, I have begun teaching art classes to homeschool students through the REACH program, which has been a lot of fun.  I had a great time teaching a silk painting class for the Amador Arts Counsel this spring, and I also have done a humble little show here, which gave me the an opportunity to see a lot of my past work together on display.










But there is one more thing happening... the book!  The book I illustrated 3 years ago called What If ~ A Poem to Read to Your Inner Child by my dear friend Ellen Hafen is in the process of getting published.  It's going to be hard work, but I am excited.  We are working on the cover design now, and will begin our crowdfunding campaign soon.  I will dedicate a post to what this special book is all about very soon.



In the mean-time, I'll post current projects here and updates on our progress with the book.








Time to get our fire on! 
 (once I get the kiln up and running!)
