“Frances McFeather” is the Seussian character I created for the Seuss Whimsy Art Show currently on view at Osceola Arts in Kissimmee, FL. Dr. Seuss often created characters that had elaborate and extravagant hair, wings or tails and Frances pays tribute to all those fancy friends. I even wrote a little poem about her… Have […]
Read more "Frances McFeather"When the call for artists was released for the Black and White Art Show at The Barefoot Spa, it quickly dawned on me what I should paint… Snoopy! This year I have been making a concerted effort to only paint things that make me happy and Snoopy does just that. The world’s best known beagle […]
Read more "Snoopy"For the February issue of Artborne Magazine, I was tasked with writing about sculptor Maxwell Hartley. Specializing in the appropriation of discarded industrial materials for his epic commentaries on a society fascinated with all things disposable, he is a truly genuine human with a big heart. I was honored and humbled to see the article […]
Read more "Maxwell Hartley: The Visitor"This painting is a combination of two things I love with a passion – The Muppets and Wes Anderson films. A few years ago, Stardust Video and Coffee in Winter Park, FL hosted a Wes Anderson-themed art show. When the idea hit me for a pop culture mash-up (another thing I love with a passion), […]
Read more "“The Life Aquatic”"I am slowly working my way through all the Miyazaki films and I’m loving every minute of it! Each film hits me right in the feels in sometimes surprising ways.

Read more "The Whimsy of Dr. Seuss"In a previous blog post I alluded to a painting I did of my beagle pup, Chipper, dressed as Frida Kahlo. It all started with a photograph I took of Chip wearing a flower crown and a shawl. I wondered if I could paint a version of the photo in the style of Frida and […]
Read more "“Winter Garden’s Best Friends” Art Show"“Blood on Our Hands” is an abstract piece inspired by one of my favorite shows, “The Walking Dead.” While I love science-fiction and fantasy, I occasionally dabble in the horror genre and TWD is my go-to source for gore. This piece is inspired by a line of dialogue from Season 6, Episode 7 (“Heads Up”) […]
Read more "“Blood on Our Hands”"Kindred Spirits is a collaborative project uniting artist Paula Davis and myself, Adrienne H. Lee. Paula is an incredible artist and I am always amazed by her creations. I am so honored to be partnered with her on this endeavor.

Read more "Kindred Spirits"I’m a HUGE fan of Joss Whedon and after consuming all things “Firefly”/”Serenity” and “Doll House,” it was time for “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “Angel.” My husband and I watched every episode of both shows in order and it is one of my greatest accomplishments in televised media consumption. Since BTVS debuted twenty years […]
