Graffiti Sweater for a Sporty Girl

I got an order for a skateboarding girl named ivy. She wanted long sleeves , and then her mom stated she loves hoodies. So since the young girl was 12, I thought it would be a great idea to get a small fitted stretch hoodie for a growing tween. She is a Tom-boy but I still managed to make it girly. Along with the skateboard she also requested a free handed "peace" on the sleeve.

Halloween Necklace/ID holder

I got a a great custom order for an ID holder with these specific skeleton beads, which I was able to find online for a great price. I also made matching earrings. This is fun for the holidays or for everyday color accessories @ work.

Cheer iPhone Case

As an artist I get commissioned to do many things. One of them was a cheer iPhone case. I loved the idea because It was different, and I was pumped to work the requirements into my design. The client requested the colors Maroon, Gold and White with the words "Go Wolves". I found a white case, drew the design on paper first and then mixed my colors. I added pearls, glitter, and bling. I am happy to report the client loved it.

How to make a 3D house from poster board

My son came home with a project to make a Victorian house for social studies. The teacher gave him the plans on paper. He then had to measure the home on the 8X10 sheet in cm and multiply by 2.5. After he did his measurements we converted them to inches. We then drew the exact same house on the poster board. We cut it out to make sure everything measured correctly. We then painted and decorated it by googling Victorian houses. We found an amazing green colored one which was our inspiration. When finished we hot glued it all together and presto.

Making a new painting based on NYC

It's called NYC and it is a basic Manhattan City scape map. It's inspired by my sons room which is design aspect is "Transportation". I hope you like it.

Surprising accomplishment within the mess


I made a newly fantastic painting decoupage style, with magazine clippings, organic shapes, with acrylic paint, and lots of imagination to make it work. I love, love love how it turned out. It took me a total of three weeks total to finish it. I mostly work on the weekends with and, and I have been fairly patient, which is quit unusual in my paintings. I like to start a painting and finish asap. I don't like leaving painting supplies all over the place, but with all the things going on in  my life right now, I don't have the option to have a stellar neat house. Surprisingly, I am being super successful in every aspect of my life (the world hasn't caved in) by being less obsessive compulsive with neatness and order. So this painting is the end result of my calm, and relaxation, as well as ultimate success.
