Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. I hope everyone is doing well. I had been hinting the last few weeks about a big project I was working on. Well, it’s finally finished and delivered.

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. I hope everyone is having a great day. Here’s a recent commission pet portrait. This is Rascal, who is just such a cutie. This pose was especially sweet, with his attention focused on his person. As you know, I almost always rely on photos sent to me…

Good afternoon from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is well and enjoying this refreshing weather. There is a new blurb in the bio section; check it out. I just did a memorial portrait for dear friends. As I’ve said before, I hate doing memorials, and I also love doing them. It’s so sad…

Good morning from my studio in East Nashville. Hope everyone is having a great day. Another Tomato Art Festival has come and gone. I’m pleased to say all three of my pieces sold. It makes me proud and happy that someone thought enough of my work to take it home and enjoy. Thanks to everyone…
