Now you can wear my art.....no matter what size you are.

little table mania

I have painted a bunch of these little cocktail tables. They are really fun to do. Plus they are useful little pieces of furniture. Great for setting your drink on.

cupcakes!

As you may know we just recently moved to Vegas. I haven't been able to explore much because I'm getting ready for the AVAM show in Baltimore.
Tonight we got dessert from this little shop called The Cupcakery. Oh my! they make a mean cupcake! Mocha, strawberry shortcake, kir royale (my favorite drink) double chocolate, lemon berry. Plus they sell cute retro style aprons and very cold chocolate milk. Awesome!

Two more 24" suns

skull & crossbone stools

Finished up these two stools for the upcoming Seacrets show. They are pastel piratey. I'm sure there are pirates out there who like pretty colors. my website

I was washing the dishes yesterday and thought I heard a turkey........I did! a wild turkey family.

Happy Birthday Babycakes :)

Today is Courtney's b-day. She and Colin moved to Philly a few months ago and we miss them so much. I still haven't been able to visit and see the new place. Last year was fun........Courtney drank the biggest margarita I have ever seen. I can't be there this time.......but I'm thinking about them and just picturing carefully placed Colin flowers covering her shoes.


I hope she has the best birthday ever!
