Family Portrait Illustration on Sullivan's Island

in New Artwork .

It’s happening. Slowly, but surely I'm making my way back to blogging. The last few years have been a whirlwind for many of us. For me personally, I moved states (up the coast to Wilmington, North Carolina), began updating our new home, tried to get situated in a new city, had a new studio built, and most recently had kitchen renovations completed. Needless to say blogging took a back seat, as it often does.   Anyway, I’m getting back to this online journal journey with a recent commission that I love. For starters, it gives me all the spring/summer vibes, which I’m longing for. Hec..

Spirit Animal Painting is Complete!

in New Artwork .

After months and months of working on this piece it's finally complete! This is the first painting I've created 100% for me! I call this oil painting the "Spirit Animal Painting" or simply "The Fox and the Pelican". The idea for the piece came from my interest and research into spirit animals. My husband, Derek, and I were chatting one day about what we thought our spirit animal would be. It didn't take long for a pelican to come to mind for Derek, being as he loves the wind and ocean so much (he's a windsurfer). Mine was a little more challenging, but we finally decided on the fox. Fr..

Utah Mountain Wedding

in New Artwork, Art Studio, Art Exhibits & Events .

Creating wedding illustrations with pets involved never gets old. I’m not sure who stole the show more of this Park City, Utah wedding, the furry friend, back drop, gorgeous couple, or that insane floral arch? Wow! It’s a toss up I suppose. Needless to say this must have been an amazing day for the happy couple and their guests!..

Australia Bushfire Illustration

in New Artwork .

Australia has always been a dream to me, ever since I was a little kid. Being the animal lover I am, it's been their creatures that have captivated me. Each one cuter or more unique than the next. What's been happening in Australia over the last few months hurts my soul. The amount of animal lives lost, both wild AND domestic is devastating and heartbreaking. Let us not forget about those trapped behind fences and inside barns, unable to even have the chance to escape their fate. They too suffer and feel pain the same as their wild forest friends. This illustration was created in memory of ..

Shooting African Wildlife

in New Artwork .

There's only one way to shoot African wildlife and that's with a camera! Every few months there seem to be photographs circulating the internet of American hunters proudly posing with their trophy kills. And every single time there is public backlash. The most recent being Texas huntress, Tess Talley, whose 2017 South Africa giraffe hunt photo went viral, creating a storm of attention. Many of these hunters, when interviewed, claim to be “surprised” by the negative response, including Tess, but why? I’d say it’s clear that the majority of Americans do not condone this type of murder. Not..

Springtime Yoga in Charleston

in New Artwork .

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Ok, I know that slogan usually goes for the Christmas season, but in my opinion there are two reigning champions for that title, Christmas and Spring! Both ever so magical in their own right and way. Spring time is all about new beginnings and growth. It's difficult to not feel optimistic when the world around you is bustling with new life! Marion Square, situated between two of the main vein streets in Charleston, Calhoun and King, is right in the middle of town. It's a spring time haven for those wanting to play fisbee, soccer, layout, picnic, or ..
