I’m going to be ordering a sample woven blanket of this piece soon! It will be done by the same company that made my unicorn blankets. Are there any other pieces of mine you guys might like to see as a blanket? #polarbear #carousel

‘Against the Clock’ is now live on Every Day Original! Photos just can’t do justice to the depth and detail of the metallic paper and laser etched acrylic layers! If you are looking for a really unique piece, this little spider would love to keep watch over your home! #clock #art #paper #lasercut

I’m working on something a bit different for my Every Day Original tomorrow! This one is extremely intricate with layered metallic paper gears, lots of different types of papers and interesting textures. I’ve especially loved adding all the weathering effects! #wip #clock #lasercut #paperart

I’ve been spending some free time painting ceramics at a local ‘paint your own’ pottery studio this summer. The owner commissioned me to paint this memorial urn for her two fur babies. Thank you so much, Tammy, for trusting me with this project. ❤️ #ceramicpainting #petportrait #petmemorial

There’s less than 24 hours left to see my work at Valkarie Gallery or purchase from their online store! Thank you to my amazing friends and collectors who have given many pieces homes already, I absolutely couldn’t do it without you! #artgallery #denvercolorado

There’s still a couple of days left to get one of my cyanotype tiger bandanas from Valkarie Gallery! I had so much fun experimenting with these and had so many favorites I wish I could have kept! #cyanotype #tiger #bandana

Just a heads up, my work will only be available online until Sunday, August 3rd! I am dealing with terrible and frequent migraines and have decided to leave Valkarie Gallery after many amazing years. I am not scheduling any new gallery shows right now until I can make some progress on my health.

These fun fireflies are still looking for good homes! They are miniature windows to the woods at just 3.5” x 4.5” with glow in the dark fireflies and paper oak leaves. I kept them small and affordable, so hopefully they’ll find a place to live soon! #fireflies #glowinthedark #miniatureart

These two pairs of manta rays are looking for good homes! The water glass isn’t as textured as the acrylic on the other pieces, but casts lovely shapes in the light and shows off the details of the rays better. They will be up at Valkarie Gallery through the end of the week! #manta #sculpture

I still have some wall hanging dragon guardians available through Valkarie Gallery! The dragons are cast in resin with chameleon color shifting pigment powders. The backers are laser cut from wood and acrylic, and have a keyhole hanger on the back. I hope you love them as much as I do! #dragon

‘Lottie’ is now available at Valkarie Gallery! She and her sister ‘Lettie’ are painted on wood veneer rather than watercolor paper, to echo the beauty of hand carved wooden horses. They are both still looking for good homes! Link below. #carousel #horse #art

‘Lettie’ is now at Valkarie Gallery! She is one of three carousel pieces I made for their ‘Cornucopia’ show. I personally feel the antique hand carved animals with peeling paint are just as beautiful as the completely restored ones! She has a sister ‘Lottie’ in the show as well! #carousel

‘A Study in Simplicity’ is now available! While making this piece I continually tried to add more to it, to make it something extra intricate. This was one of those pieces that just wanted to be something different, that fought my stylistic instincts, and wanted for less rather than more.

Working on something kind of small and simple (for me) for @everydayoriginal.bsky.social tomorrow. I have always loved ginkgo leaves, and have been wanting to make a little study of their beautiful branches. I hope you all like it! #wip #ginkgo #cutpaper #paperart

I’m so excited to announce that my unicorn artwork is now available as a cross stitch pattern through Unconventional X Stitch! I can’t wait to see what finished projects look like, so please tag me if you share your works online! #crossstitch #unicorn @unconventionalxsti.bsky.social

These manta rays were such experimental pieces, and I’m so pleased with how they turned out! They are currently at Valkarie Gallery in Lakewood, CO. If you are around tonight, please come by the reception! I will be in attendance from 5-8:30, and hope to see you there! Link to the show below.

‘Cornucopia’ is now open at Valkarie Gallery in Lakewood, CO! Come join us Saturday the 12th, 5-8:30pm for the opening reception. If you can’t make it to the show, everything is now available online! Link below. #dragon #art #sculpture

A sneak peek of two antique style carousel horse artworks that will be a part of the Valkarie Gallery show! #art #carousel #carouselhorse

Getting some mantas ready to drop off at Valkarie Gallery, for the ‘Cornucopia’ four person show opening next weekend! #art #mantaray #glowinthedark #lakewoodcolorado

Trend? What trend? Please forgive the completely negligible set-up and camera work.

Also working on some of the most delicate insects I’ve ever made! These little guys still need some painting, then they’ll be finished in miniature wood frames for the show! #wip #glowinthedark #cutpaper #fireflies

These manta rays were a new experiment in paper casting for my July show! I’d never done any paper casting before, so it was a lot of learning, especially making my own plaster mold. #wip #paper #mantaray

This weekend I was able to make some cyanotype sun printed bandanas for my show next month at Valkarie Gallery! They are made from modified cut paper elements from my Year of the Tiger piece. I’m quite pleased with how they came out! #cyanotype #sunprint

A sneak peek of something in the works for my July show! These guys are going to be a bit different, but I hope you all like them! #glowinthedark #mantaray

I am still here, and making small things. I’m honestly struggling with migraines and health stuff, and struggling to get my insurance to approve the medication I need to manage them. Things feel very heavy right now and I’m definitely not at full art making capacity. #resincasting #dragon

I still have a few of the woven unicorn blankets left! I don’t know when I’ll be ordering more, so now’s your chance to get one before the mill raises their prices! Link below. #unicorn #wovenblanket

I listed 8 unicorn blankets on Etsy! For new folks, this is based on my artwork ‘A Gilded Chain is Still a Chain’. They are completely woven, 100% cotton, 60” long and 50” wide. I don’t know when I’ll be getting another batch made, so get them while you can! Link below! #unicorn #wovenblanket

‘urSol The Chanter’ is now available through @everydayoriginal.bsky.social! He is the counterpart to The Chamberlain in The Dark Crystal. Whereas Chamberlain uses his voice to charm and deceive, urSol uses his to bring harmony. Link below! #darkcrystal #mystic #paperart #watercolor

One last sneak peek of urSol the Chanter before he comes to @everydayoriginal.bsky.social tomorrow! I just love all the layers and intricacies in the Dark Crystal character designs! #darkcrystal #fanart #mystic

Oh wow, my Year of the Snake piece was just featured in an email newsletter from Talas! I was very surprised to see that in my inbox this morning, thank you so much! If you’re looking for archival materials and beautiful papers, check out their site! #paperart #yearofthesnake #lunarnewyear2025

Working on a ‘Dark Crystal’ Mystic for @everydayoriginal.bsky.social this Friday! He is urSol the Chanter and is the companion to the Chamberlain I made last time. #wip #darkcrystal #mystic

#WorldSparrowDay. Eurasian tree sparrow (_Passer montanus_). Watercolour on paper-backed silk, 106 × 116 mm. This piece from 2023 was the first time I finally tried painting on silk. I'll repost an old XTwitter thread on the process later. The bird's proportions bother me slightly now, but hey ho.

Octopoid Descending, detail. She will gain some sisters sometimes soon, I am thinking. In Kato Polyclay.

Here’s a lovely video of my carousel pieces at the LA Art Show this past weekend. They are still available from Copro Gallery!

‘Jasper’ is currently available through Copro Gallery at the LA Art Show this week! He was definitely the most intricate of the animal series, and I just love how his face came out! #carousel #carouselanimals #camel #paperart #watercolor #laartshow

‘Jade’ is currently available through Copro Gallery at the LA Art Show! I loved making the skin texture on the elephant. If you are in the LA area, definitely go check out this amazing show! #carousel #elephant #paperart #watercolor #laartshow

I’ve been learning how to make silk Ronghua velvet flowers, this is my first attempt! The process is so interesting and laborious, and the results are almost magical. If you want to see a master maker, go check out @ronghuafullflowers on Instagram to see how it’s done! #silk #silkflowers #ronghua

I know this can be a tough day for a lot of folks, perhaps even more difficult this year. There is a very commercial idea that the love to be celebrated today must be romantic. However, as I get older I have found so much love from family, friends, end especially my silly little Maisie.

‘Aurora’ was accepted into Infected by Art 13! I’m very happy to see her included, but am honestly a bit disappointed that the unicorn didn’t make it through. I‘ll definitely take what I can get though! #art #polarbear #carousel

So, I’ve had a lot of folks asking what I used for the shedding skin on my snake. It’s two different papers, a thin Japanese Tengucho paper from Hiromi Paper, on top of a laser cut Stonehenge Light paper. I was very happy with the results! #yearofthesnake #lunarnewyear #cutpaper #paperart

#Iguanodon was formally named 200 years ago today in 1825. The second dinosaur to be named after Megalosaurus, and one of three genera originally used to define Dinosauria.

‘Time For a Change’ is now available through Valkarie Gallery! The snake is shedding the skin of last year, the year of the dragon. This was a very technical piece, definitely a challenge! Link below. #art #lunarnewyear #yearofthesnake

A final sneak peek of my Year of the Snake piece coming to Valkarie Gallery! I really challenged myself this year! #snake #yearofthesnake #lunarnewyear #paper #paperart #watercolor #lasercut

Finally finished the plum blossom branch for my snake! I’m extremely far behind because of migraine clusters these last two weeks, but it will be done and available tomorrow! I can’t wait to show the full piece! #wip #lunarnewyear #yearofthesnake #plumblossom #cutpaper #paperart #watercolor

Every time I make something with scales, I swear it will be the last time! Getting these made in Illustrator was a real challenge. I’ve been dreaming about snakes attacking me all week. I like snakes, I think it’s the files that are trying to get me! #wip #yearofthesnake #adobeillustrator

Original artwork available at auction, ending Friday 7th February, 18:30 GMT. 🙏 'Podgy Deer' Brown pencil on ivory cartridge paper, 150 × 103 mm, 2019. m.facebook.com/story.php?st...

A quick ‘work in progress’ sneak peek of a piece coming soon to Valkarie Gallery! #lunarnewyear #yearofthesnake #wip #wipart #lasercut

I'm frightened for us. I do not think it's an overreaction. Not remotely.

A little donkey the dreamer who wants to be a miracle too. Ehhh, all these shiny magnificent unicorns, you know... You can't change your very nature, yet you still can use the power of imagination, and sometimes it's enough just to play a unicorn instead of really becoming one. #unicorn #art

I promise this will be the last blanket post for a long while! There are only a couple days left to preorder the unicorn blanket from Valkarie Gallery. I don’t know when I’ll be doing another batch, so get them while you can! Link below. #unicorn #unicornblanket #wovenblanket
