There's something so nostalgic about summertime for me. When I was little I'd spend hours in the water practicing my synchronized swimming moves. And I remember that one time my brother told me to sniff the bottom of the pool because it smelt like strawberries. Ha. Ha. Good times.

 My mom asked me to make this for her boss's retirement party. I didn't charge her :)

 Also, a big thank you to Comm Arts for featuring me in their Fresh series this week. You can see it right here.

A new painting of an old pair of shoes... jazzed up with some patterns and fun.

This pattern is a part of a series I've been working on. It reminds me of swimming pools and patios.

For my under appreciated home state I give you a sweet little old lady who definitely has some Werther's in her pockets.

This is an illustration I recently did for Selvedge Magazine. The image accompanied an article that was about the beauty of simple & everyday items–like snap fasteners and zippers. I have to admit, I didn't know that those little things were called snap fasteners until I worked on this. You learn something new everyday!
