Hot, Sticky, Crabby


Good Morning! It's gonna be a hot sticky one here, but I'm trying not to be crabby about it (coffee helps). Unfortunately for this guy, he can't help being anything but crabby

Variations - American Flag

After creating the 4th of July graphic, I had some ideas for the flag graphic with different treatments. The eagle added in the 4th version was an illustration I created several years ago.

220 Steps

I love the Outer Banks and I especially love Corolla, NC. It was a special favorite place for my husband and I. This is Currituck Light. 220 steps to the top where awaits a gorgeous view of Corolla, the ocean and The Whalehead Club. We have spent vacations in Corolla probably 20 times over the years and were even married in Corolla. Wonderful, wonderful memories. Every visit to the Outer Banks, I've visited this lighthouse and climbed the 220 steps to the beautiful view not seen anywhere else.

Currituck Light. The original painting is 11x14, watercolor on illustration board.

What a nice comment :)


I recently completed a custom order for an Etsy customer - a pastel painting of Ocracoake Light.
She left me some very nice feedback, and it made my day. This is what she said.


Even more beautiful in person! Thank you so much, it was WELL received.

I'm always relieved when someone likes their painting. It's why I do it - spread a little happiness.

Coloring Easter Eggs - No Boiling required

Easter Morning I colored some Easter Eggs to turn into cards - experimenting with the dragonfly stamp I carved, watercolor and ink.

loose paintings of Easter Egg backgrounds
I then stamped the eggs with a dragonfly and finished decorating them with pen. The blue one on the right has metallic gold and silver ink and then speckled with white paint spatter that doesn't show up well in the scan.
I enjoy being able to make things for my friends and family, giving them a little piece of me.
Happy Easter!
