james dean no.1

I started this James Dean portrait with pencil several years ago. I thought it would be fun to work on at work. I hadn't done anything to it in quite awhile and decided it was about time to finish him. It took me several days/months to start him and one day to finish him, I would say it's about time I kept up on my art.

"Mister Shkelton Man"

I drew this little guy about two years ago while suffering from boredom during a nutrition class. We met in this high school science classroom where above skeleton was posed. Doodle-art that I think turned out pretty cool.

lil' coop guy

I've always wanted to get a yorkie, I've always thought they were cute little dogs. When I drew this guy back in 2010 my husband and I were living in a town home where we couldn't have dogs so I figured this would be the next best thing. I really like how it turned out.

My first commissioned piece of artwork. My aunt Emily who manages a hotel with her husband in Moab, Ut asked me to paint this. She gave me a postcard with the idea and I took it from there. This painting is actually quite big, one of the biggest I've done.
