Working on a series of paintings on hair and makeup for Spring 2013. I especially love this top one. A great look for everyday :)

London Lace Social Media promo

Every month I create an image for London Lace for their social media promotion. I decided last month to start series of women in windows. The top image is for May, below for April. I collage with a photo of the actual lace curtains.

Hand lettering

A beautiful poster campaign!

My dog Charlie

At the end of November we adopted our first dog. He's a rescue from the South and he's an amazing dog. He is as soft as can be and seems his main purpose is to give and receive love - well - besides chasing anything that moves. So far he's caught and eaten a rabbit and a squirrel. He tried to eat a porcupine the other night and that went very badly for all of us. Really hoping he's smart enough to not do that again. Here is Charlie! And that isn't me. I'd never wear yellow. EVER.

New painting

I've had a lot of design work lately - and not any time for painting. Have a new project that will end with a show in the fall - I was just warming up here. I love taking unfinished paintings ( this background) and painting on top of them. It creates a look I probably couldn't  get all in one shot

This is the front and back cover for  the Encore Tours catalog. Encore is the music division of the travel company Acis where you can also see some of my work on their homepage. I worked on this with designer Alexis Neubert  It was a lot of fun!

Spring

I submitted some ideas for Spring covers to the New Yorker

But - none make the cut. But I still love them! Here are 2 of my favorites.

I wanted  to capture a feeling of spring with flowers, butterflies and colors that I love.

Grammy fashion

While having fun with my Oscar Fashion Hall of Fame - since the Grammys are tonight - i had a little fun with what I thought Carly Rae Jepson could wear - - her song Call Me Maybe is up for best song. And Mia - well, she gets my prize for silliest Grammy style. I think she had her baby a few days later.

Dog Walking in the Snow

Pretty excited  these days with my new dog - Charlie - we go for a run every morning. But this is not my dog - and I'd never wear a pink hat :) this was inspired by my daughter's beautiful German Shepherd, Ike - who sadly died a few months ago.  We miss him.
