KITSCHY MAN

This is my AWESOME, LOVING, SUPPORTIVE, RIDICULOUSLY COOL HUSBAND.  

He is ALL MAN.  Especially when surrounded by florals and weird statues.

HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO AGAIN

Inspired by all things colorful, crazy and vintage with punk rock twists lately…

And going back to school again after FAR too long of a hiatus. This semester, I’m enrolled in Fashion Illustration II, and Pattern Drafting Procedures… BOTH of which have an added 6 hours of homework to my week. Opening my arms up to fantastic progress in stuff that I LOVE… and SO EXCITED for possibilities. LIFE IS OPENING UP. And though some doors have closed recently for me, my life is better without the baggage; I am OPEN FOR BETTER. And I have narrowed my direction to THEATRICAL COSTUMING. I LOVE EVERY ERA, and think this is the most lucrative, fun and challenging way to channel my passions.

HERE’S TO MORE. 😀

 

Work in progress…

Lots to update on, (it’s been a while!!) but I’ll toss this picture up – it’s a 3′ x 5′ commissioned painting on solid oak board. Very relaxing!!

3 Sisters…

I have dreams of my three little girls doing crazy shiz like this one day…

Easter 2014

Attended church for the first time in a year (it’s COMPLICATED), but had fun dressing up!!

LOVE YOU

Because I need reminding, because I’m grateful for the Birthday Wishes, and because it’s TRUE.

I don’t think I’m ever more at my center/core than when I’m painting theatre sets; even if it’s for a 3rd/4th grade level musical.

I ADORE CREATION.
