Tiny Houses
Hairy blocks
Sex education- body hair growth!
Handpainted wooden blocks with velcro connectors. Four sides show progression of body hair growth for males (teal) and females (orange).
Left Out
embroidered illustration from a few months ago (wow, my walls are so purple.)
Wheee! This week is moving faster than seems possible. The girls and I spent a good chunk of time locked in the gallery together, and our show is really coming together nicely. Drop by if you're in the area!
Icons revisited
While I was in Bolivia, I spent a lot of my time studying icons used in Andean textiles and pottery. These two drawings sprouted from those studies.
First touch
acrylic and fabric on muslin
an island for us
want to come live on a little hill of an island with me? this is an assemblage centered on an egg carton. The skeleton of the hill is a construction of the egg cradle pieces, with a thin layer of tissue paper mache and acrylic paint over everything.
My dream for post-graduation: keeping all my friends with me!
Sensitive
These two pieces are responses to the question: What do you like least about being female? most? My answer to both is sensitivity. The first shows how I feel so often- controlled by my emotions- resulting in yet another meltdown.
The second shows how sensitivity can be an increased awareness of how others are feeling, and an ability to reach out to them.
romanced
This is recent work from an assignment on gender & sexuality.
These are pretty teeny- 4"x5" each. I used colored paper, acrylic, thread, and some lined notebook paper.
Good news- the leaves are finally changing colors around here. We were worrying they hadn't gotten the memo.
it’s official
Ok, now it's official: I'm a published illustrator!

In other news, I'm working on a big update for the store, and I did my first quilting project last night, which was amazing! It went much more quickly than I'd expected, and was lots of fun. Photos coming soon!
Poem
Illustration Friday submission for "poem". Vintage nursery rhyme pages, old baby photo, colored vellum, and wire on masonite, 6"x7.5"
This was a really exciting piece to work on... there's something about objects that have a history. It does make the cuts more stressful, but there's a sense of awe in working with them. This kind of work is really going to push my packrat button!
