Thank You for Making Me Smile!

A hearty “thank you” goes out to all those who attended the opening for the “Art That Makes Me Smile!” show at The Barefoot Spa.  Seeing so many of my artist friends before the holidays gave me a joyful boost and the show itself is definitely one to smile about. I am quickly wrapping up […]

“Figment”

This painting was intended for an art show titled “Dragons and Geishas.”  However, he sold before I could deliver him to the curator.  In the art world, that is called a “good problem!” Regardless, he has a buddy painting – “Mushu” – that will be delivered to the curator on Friday.  I’ll post an image […]

Happy Cupcakes

A while back, I created this cute, little “character” called a Happy Cupcake.  I believe they appealed to all sorts of people, especially kids, and I must have painted a hundred Happy Cupcakes over the years. Different color combinations, different sizes, different “themes” of cupcakes – all different, but all happy. I rarely paint Happy […]

Porg

I’m keeping New Art Week rolling with this lil’ guy inspired by the highly debated Porgs in the upcoming Star Wars film, “The Last Jedi.”  The film won’t be released until next month and the presence of Porgs in early marketing (children’s books, plush, the film’s most recent trailer, a photo in Entertainment Weekly, etc.) […]

Ootori-Sama

New Art Week continues with this cute little guy, “Ootori-Sama.”  Ootori-Sama is a minor character in Hayao Miyazaki’s epic film, “Spirited Away,” and most aren’t really sure what kind of creature it is.  Is it a duck?  Is it a chicken?  Is it even a bird?  Regardless, he is one of the spirits who visits […]

Gravity Falls

“New Art Week” continues with this fun little set of paintings inspired by one of my favorite shows – “Gravity Falls.”  I know I have raved about this show in the past, but it really is a great show.  Meant for kids, there are a number of inside jokes only adults will get.  Plus, it […]
