I'm glad you were born

On the 4th was my dads birthday. He's been such a huge influence in my life, and is always pushing me to do a little more than I think I'm capable of. Dad, thank you for being patient and understanding and listening to me when I can find something to complain about. I painted a cupcake for his day, and I surprised myself by the end of it - I really like this one! Always learning, always gaining.

Oil on Canvas

Fort Fisher

One of my favorite places around Wilmington is Fort Fisher. My

 dog and I like to spend summer days galavanting around the park, while I carry her poo in special doggy bags made just for poo.

Relaxing is a practice

This particular painting really got the best of me. I promised myself I would paint 100 paintings, or at least START 100 paintings, and then re-access the learning process. This one taught me a lot about learning technique, which colors go down first and using my paint rags to wipe away paint when its necessary to me.

Let it out, girl

I remember coming into the studio on this particular day needing to paint out a feeling I had. I can't remember exactly what the feeling was, or why I chose this particular subject to paint but it's one of my favorite paintings I've done so far.

"I don't work on Saturdays"

I painted this on what I like to usually take as a day off. You know you really love something when the nagging feeling of wanting to paint comes to haunt you even when you know you should just take the day off.

The Sunshine State

My dad and Uncle Jim rented a house in Florida for a month and somehow I wound up here too. We took a commission piece from an old friend of his. Here is a picture of me slowly cutting in the shoreline. I'm really excited to see how this turns out, as its the biggest painting my dad has ever done and the first piece of art I've gotten to make with him.
