Show @ Cafe Smooth!
I'd like to proudly announce my upcoming art show at Cafe Smooth here in Savannah, Georgia! The show will be displayed April 1st- May 31st, 2009. If you've never been to Smooth, do stop in! They're located on Bull Street between Oglethorpe and York. Here is their website...home to the greatest smoothie on the planet (my personal favorite is the "Blueberry Thrill").
I will have a total of twenty original framed illustrations on display and available to purchase. This piece, among many others, will be on display in a vintage frame.
Hope you can check it out!! I'll be posting pictures once the art is hanging.

A lovely day for a treasury...or two!
I'd like to thank fellow Etsy sellers AuroraFedora and BeezMiller for including two of my "Sampling Savannah" prints ("Praline Pecan Pie" and "Sweet Tea" to be precise!) in their treasuries today! You can view the Etsy treasuries here and here. Tomorrow is the last day of Spring break, which I'm feeling a bit down about, but I must admit I'm looking forward to the months ahead!!

Love is in the Air!
Here is my latest piece! This was created for an assignment in which I was challenged to illustrate the concept of "love." I chose to take a slightly more narrative approach, one that could tie into the children's book concept that I've been developing and adding on to for a couple of years....and this was the result. Essentially, I combined my love of Paris and daschunds into one image. Prints are now available in the shop!

"Sampling Savannah" plates
I'm excited to unveil my latest set of illustrations...these are a series of designs for plates (Savannah, GA-themed, obviously...well, at the very least, they're centered around things that remind me of this town)! I've created actual ceramic plates bearing the same illustrations, which I hope to add to the shop soon. I also have a few more concepts to expand upon these four images I've started with. In the meantime, I'll be offering prints! And, they'll be more work to come very soon! Happy Spring (thank goodness it's here)!!
