water is life

"Water Is Life, All Life Is Sacred" is the message of the shirt design I created for this year's 35th Annual 500 Mile American Indian Spiritual Marathon. This is the second year that I have run this event and it's such an honor to have my design on this year's shirt! Read more about this event on Native News Network.

barn mural

This is the mural I designed for my friend Sheldon Rosenberg, owner of Rotten Apple Ranch in Sebastopol, California. He wanted a mural for the side of one of the barns on his property. It had to be modern and in a somewhat paint-by-number style to make it easier to paint. Included in the design is the family's old Ford pickup, a fixture in the history of the property. The mural will be painted sometime this summer!

lol stories

The LOL story I illustrated for M Magazine this month is about a girl getting in trouble with her mom in front of the whole school! When she got caught having a spitball fight with her best friend, instead of being sent to the principal's office, she was taken straight to her mom who was volunteering that day at the school. Wow, that's embarrassing!

summer art classes!

I'm teaching youth art classes at the Paso Robles Art Association this summer!!! Here's my class schedule, there are projects designed for ages 11-13 and some geared toward ages 14-17. Each class is different and will complete their project from start to finish. Sign up is à la carte, pick and choose which class(es) you'd like. We are going to have so much fun!
