My interest in art grew hand-in-hand with my interest in horses. Like a lot of little girls, I loved ponies. I used to turn empty notebooks into horse encyclopedias, and would draw the characters of any pony-related books I read (Pony Pals, anyone?).
I carried my precious drawings around in a wheeled cooler so I could put on mobile "art shows." I still have a lot of those early drawings, although I don't keep them in a cooler anymore.
I have expanded my subject matter since those early days, and I am not interested in sticking to one distinct "style," despite the conventional and permeating wisdom that urges artists to do just that. (I haven't heard any compelling reasons to do so that are not related to making money or garnering fame.) Having a style is boring. And I'd rather have variety than make lots of money or be widely known. Life's too short! And while my product page might not be as matchy and put-together as other shops, there's something for everyone here, and most of all, I'm having fun!
Nowadays I'm still big on drawing animals, but I also love minimalist line art, expressive portraits, anything with a pun in it, and holiday-themed prints. I recently took an interest in printmaking and hae had a blast exploring linocutting, etching, and similar mediums.
So check back often because you never know what I'm going to do next!
