The rabbit in the moon is one of my favorite bits

The rabbit in the moon is one of my favorite bits of folklore , conveniently combining two things my daughter loves- bunnies and the moon. For this Moon Bunnies piece, I imagined a whole warren of blue-furred rabbits living on the moon, in rocky caverns, looking down over the earth. #rabbitart #moonbunny #outerspace #pittsburghartist #paperart #illustration

I’m doing some last minute restocking of my mini shadow box magnets just in time for the #squirrelhillnightmarket ! I’ll be a part of the @imadeitmarket partnering with @uncoversquirrelhill , set up along Murray Ave this evening. My tent will be at the corner of Murray and Bartlett, from 6-10pm tonight. Stop by and say hello! Masks are recommended for this event, let’s keep each other healthy!

Back to the basics over here- a flock of flying eyeballs! These creatures were one of my favorite things to doodle back when I first started dabbling in illustration, in the margins of my notes in photo school. It was fun to go back to these guys, making a whole flock to soar together over the countryside. #illustration #paperart #shadowbox #flyingeyeball #pittsburghartist

I’ve finished a new shadow box from my nursery rhyme series- here is Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. As one of the first songs preschoolers seem to learn, if my daughter hears a hint of it anywhere nearby, she will automatically burst into song at full loud, out of tune, volume- it’s pretty fantastic! #paperart #illustration #twinkletwinklelittlestar #nurserydecor #pittsburghartist

I didn’t manage to get a picture of my new setup

I didn’t manage to get a picture of my new setup yesterday, unfortunately, but I did get this blurry pic of the most gorgeous double rainbow that I drove home with, after a storm made load out very exciting. Thank you to everyone who stopped by my tent yesterday, it was so wonderful to see you all, and I really appreciate all the support. And thank you so much to @lakewoodartsfestival for putting on a fantastic show! I heard so many positive comments about all the great artists and the variety and quality.

I’ll be doing another in person show tomorrow, and I’ve finished my first giant (16x20) shadow box just in time! This piece is a reimagining of Atlantis, and is part of a limited edition of 5. Come see it new in person tomorrow from 10-6, in Lakewood OH, and the Lakewood Arts Festival. I’ll be in booth 25, just down the block from the library. #paperart #shadowbox #illustration #artfestival #shoplocal

I’ve finished a new shadow box! This one’s called Another Journey. There’s no specific story inspiring this one, just my ongoing fascination with all epic journey tales. I’ll have it available for sale at my next show- coming up on Aug 7th: Lakewood Arts Festival! #paperart #illustration #epicjourney #dragonart #pittsburghartist

There’s a little over two hours left for my session at Three Rivers Arts Fest before a new batch of artists comes in to set up. Thank you to everyone who came out to visit my booth this weekend. It was so great to see everyone and especially to see people interacting with my work again. This was a wonderful start to a long awaited show season! Thank you!

Here is a sneak peek at my new mixup blocks coming

Here is a sneak peek at my new mixup blocks coming soon!! I had so much fun drawing these weird guys. A customer asked about the possibility of blocks inspired by my sea monster pop up card, which I thought was a fantastic idea- and I ran with it! I hope to have the finished block sets up in my shop in just a few weeks. #illustration #pittsburghartist #watercreatures #digitaldrawing

New pop up card!! This one is inspired by my daughter’s ongoing obsession with bunnies, and my son’s recent interest in learning magic tricks. He’s not remotely subtle enough with the misdirection but is A++ at enthusiasm! #paperart #popupcard #digitalart #digitalillustration #pittsburghartist

I grew up reading A LOT of books about telepathic

I grew up reading A LOT of books about telepathic horses. At one point my dad, who also reads a lot of science fiction type stories, insisted I broaden my horizons by reading the Rider series by C.J. Cherryh- instead of the sweet bond usually portrayed in fantasy books, the alien horse-like beings in these stories have an almost parasitic relationship with their riders, with a much darker storyline. The vividness of her descriptions and world building really stuck with me! With that thought in mind, one thing led to another, and here are some red-eyed, clawed, Pegasi, defending their mountain home. #illustration #paperart #shadowbox #fantasyart #flyinghorses #horseart #pittsburghartist #pegasus

I’ve been hibernating a bit from social media- but I’m still here! Sorry for the very infrequent updates! I’ve just been keeping my head down and working away- restocking, chipping away at new project ideas but not quite finishing anything, connecting with new wholesale clients, and trying to prepare for (hopefully) the show season in this unpredictable time. Here are some new greeting cards I’ve finished! I wanted to make some new cards to send notes to all the friends and family I wish I could see in person right now. These will be available as a set of 6 (2 of each design). #illustration #monsterart #greetingcards #wishyouwerehere #pittsburghartist
