The Tree is Up!

Here is this years Christmas tree.  Very nice, if I do say so myself.
Now, if I could just finish everything else.

The Tomie dePaola Award

Here is my entry for the 2014 SCBWI Tomie dePaola Award.  I decided to try a cut paper, since I enjoyed it so much at my Highlights workshop.  So here is is.  If I win you will all hear about it.

Our assignment was to illustrate this poem.

A Sneeze
is a breeze
in
your
nose

Wish me luck!

Holiday Show

It's that time of year again, for me.  I have for the past 5 years done a holiday art show, in downtown Albany, Oregon.  The past 3 years it has taken place at a wonderful restaurant called Sybris.  If you have never eaten there you are really missing out.  Anyway, here is a little sample and I mean little, of some of my paintings.  I have a total of 60 paintings for this show.  48 of which are brand new.  So, if you live near Albany Oregon come by and take a peek.
Oh, these paintings are all done with acrylic paint on canvas, and they range in size from 6x6 up to 60x60.
