Love You to Death

I made this piece for an art show in February called "The Heartbreak Science Fair", curated by my friend Krista Wolf for InArtsNW on Olive & 17th. She asked me to participate, so this is what I designed. It hung with Heartbreaker


OctoSanta

These were pretty rad Christmas cards. 


Dia de los Muertos

Last October, Poco Wine Room in Capital Hill hosted their annual Day of the Dead and Halloween show. I asked a couple friends to pose for me while I painted them in Day of the Dead style. I usually do not paint portraits, but I love the way these came out. I'm planning more in the future.

I started with Rachelle. I went to her house and had her sit for me while I did quick base painting:


Then I went home and worked on the painting more to complete the final product:



I also asked Ryan and Jessica to come over and pose for me:








That piece sold that night! I was pretty dang excited.
