Coming Soon:

The Studio Shop

Where you can purchase original pieces, highest quality art prints and posters, and other creative tidbits from the studio. Until then, please feel free to check out this OTHER site where my graphic design skills, love of wine, and snarky wit all mash up together in apparel and housewares that you don’t really need, but will probably want anyway.

Schedule a Visit

As wonderful as modern technology is, no photograph truly captures a work of art in the same way as actually seeing the piece in person. If you would like to schedule an appointment to view my current works both finished or in process, or just see the creative space, please contact me through the link below. Yes, this counts as an “Artist Date” according to author Julia Cameron of The Artist’s Way.
