From the Poles to the Equator - Art Box

I’m honored to have this piece on display in a public art box, which is located at 7260 South Broadway in Red Hook, NY (right next to Holy Cow Ice Cream). This artwork is titled From the Poles to the Equator, and it was designed to draw attention to endangered and vulnerable species around our planet. Enormous thanks to the Red Hook Sustainable Communities Program for helping local artist share their creations in our community!

A Tin Full of Tunes

Years ago, at a yard sale, I found a mysterious tin full of index cards (which I bought for $1.00). All that was typed on each card was a song title, and the name of a singer or band. The reason why these cards were made is unknown, but they sparked my imagination.  Here are a few drawings in which I utilized individual cards as canvases. More to come soon!

Thanks for visiting. Please check out my Etsy shop to find fun and interesting prints!

Hand-drawn Holiday Cards

It’s become my tradition to create hand-drawn holiday cards for my family. Here’re a couple finished drawings.

Southwest Survey Portraits

These portraits are part of a new series, inspired by Wheeler’s Photographic survey of the American West. From 1871-1873, George M Wheeler led an expedition to create topographic maps in the western states. He took with him two photographers, Timothy O’Sullivan and William Bell, who documented the journey. For me, these landscape photos act as inspirational launching points for drawings. The image above portrays naturalist John Muir, who was considered “Father of the National Parks”. Stay tuned, I’ll be posting more portraits soon!
