Home

I have been a little artistically stuck since I have graduated . No one is telling me what kind of work to make anymore which is both liberating and overwhelming. I'm finally starting to feel creative again and starting a new body of work called Home and also Away.

Sturgis Falls Paper Flowers

Sunday I was invited to be a part of Sturgis Falls, by a fellow artist Lisa Klenske. She had an art tent this year and asked me if I would like to sell some things too. I didn't have much notice but I did have some earrings and nick nacks hanging around from past conventions so I said sure. And you know I didn't do too bad.

I also made these paper flowers, they have a pin and hair clip back so they can work as a broach or a hair accessory. They are also coated with clear spray paint so they are water resistant.

Packrats- Final Set

So this is it, the final set for my senior thesis film Packrats, all designed and constructed by me out of foam cora and paper mostly.

My Brother's Graduation!

My brother graduated from high school this year! Way to go Ian! I wanted to give him something to take to college that was some what practical so I decorated a lamp for him.

Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there! My parents have been considering getting a new puppy so this is the card I made my dad this year. For a gift I also gave my dad some lawn spray to guard against puppy spots and some bitter spray to stop puppies from chewing things. I gave my mom some chew toys also. I think they were pretty surprised.

The inside of the card said If you decide to get a dog, no matter what kind, you are going to need a couple of things, Happy Father's Day!

I'm going to updating my blog soon too! I have been very busy creating new things and graduating so stay tuned!
