Garden Inspiration

Spring is here finally after a difficult winter. We burned piles of old dead branches last night and the grass is freshly mowed, so now all the new blooms are really popping. All these spring colors are inspiring me and making me feel very happy.

Under the Sea

For the last year when I sit down to paint, I've been painting fish and underwater scenes. My fishies are kind of cartoony and cute.

Wedding Cake

When my friends Lorie and John decided to get hitched, we all decided to throw together a party for them (we had a week's notice). I made this little cake. I'm no pastry chef, but I did have fun making it and it was delicious. Photo courtesy of Geoff Smith.

American Bar

I love a nice little cocktail every now and again, and I like the book by Charles Schumann called American Bar. It has a classic design with the best illustrations by Günter Mattei.

Beautiful Things

I wish I knew what kind of flowers these are. I've had them for about six months and they've dried in the most beautiful way.

Sneaker Pimp

These shoes were made for me by my friends and colleagues in DC, as a going-away gift. They have a prized spot in my studio.

Inspiration

The door to my studio (which is also the office and closet!) is plastered with various postcards I've collected through the years.
