Pig Roast Sign

I painted a sign a long time ago for our family pig roast on a piece of cardboard. It was cute, then a few years in someone nabbed it from our driveway – who does that? Anyway, I owed my parents a new sign, so I decided to do this one right. I had a piece of board left over from another project, so I painted a faux-wood grain on it and then the lettering and the pig. There’s something…

Billiards Mural

I got the Billiards Mural up and finished! I had to take a couple last minute reference photos using their billiards table, but I’m pretty happy with how it came out. I’d like to put a frame around it to protect it a bit more, but that’s a project for later. I had a lot of fun on these two murals, I’ve love to do more of them!

Bathroom murals in progress

I started work on Area 23’s murals! First up: The bathrooms! I dug out our (very) old projector and had to boot up my (even older) laptop to transfer the sketches onto the wall. Kirk was kind enough to take some photos of the progress. It’s been a while since I worked in acrylics on this scale, but I love how they’re coming along.

Sketches for a Mural

I met with the two owners over at this new bar-in-progress called Area 23. The two guys are great, very quirky and geeky.

I worked up some sketches for them, the one above to overlook their billiards table, and the two below to indicate the bathrooms. I took inspiration…

Kitty Commissions

I got a commission for some artwork of a few cats. She saw a painting I had done in a style of Acrylic paint on board, with Zentangle around it. One painting was of her friend’s cat, and the other is of her own two kitties. I like how they came out, especially the tortoise shell kitty. I had a lot of fun making these. It’s something I’d happily do again.
