Guitar Strap


I made this guitar strap for my husband. I worked on it for over a year. I was never so happy to have a project done.

Earrings








 Over the years I have been asked to create earrings and for some reason they have always presented an artistic a challenge. I have finally been able to hurdle this bounding and here are some of my labors of love. Every pair shown here is still available for purchase, but not every pair can be bought through my Etsy site. If you have any questions please contact me.

Mother and Child




I painted this in college. My version of Mother and Child. It is hard to see, but their ship awaits their return is in the background

Ancient Goddess Drawings



I have a deep connection to the past, hence my art history/anthropology degree. From this association I did a collection of the chalk drawings. The images came from ancient goddess figures. These drawings are the only two I have left; I gave the others away as Yule gifts.

Nappers


This is a painting I did for my son. He has many monkeys but Nappers is his favorite, so I had to paint him.

Ganesh



Detail of the door
I am always looking for ways to decorate my home in an affordable manner. I saw a cabinet at World Market that I wanted, it was $200 and way out of my price range. I got this ugly cabinet at a second hand store and painted it myself. It cost about $15.
