Lost in Thought

The colors in this painting make me happy. I love certain color combinations. Some of my favorites are pale turquoise and red, purple and orange, pale turquoise and brown and lime green and red. When I tell people how happy color combinations make me, many of them look at me like I just told them I like to eat socks or something. Maybe it's an artist thing...

My Dream Furniture

Furniture can be a form or art. Someday I hope to buy my dream home near the ocean and fill it with beautiful, funky furniture that are as fun to look at as it is functional.

I love this zebra chair. I've been wanting one for years and years.

Asymmetrical chairs are, in my humble opinion, uber cool.

I love the bold red color of this couch. I do like the more modern looking ones, but comfort is a must.

In case you haven't noticed my now, I love curlycues! You will find them in most of my latest paintings.

Green is my very favorite color. These table and chairs make me happy!

Also a cool dining room set. I think I'd have a hard time choosing.

I love Indian-style patchwork. I've wanted one on my bed for years. Only problem is they're so pretty, I'd be afraid to ever lay on one.

This one's lovely, too.

Another great choice. What's a girl to do?

This bookcase is fierce!

Simple but still fabulous.

I want one of these for all the jewelry I plan to buy, hahaha. Okay, I don't plan on buying that much jewelry, so maybe I can store keepsakes in it, too.

This is a painting by my favorite living artist, Charles Dwyer. Dwyer said if he could have one wish: "I'd like to have every household own something original, by an artist of its choice." My choice would be one of his. Too bad they're waaaay out of my price range, right now at least.

The Dress 2

I had a bad day yesterday. Watching The Hunger Games cheered me up; creating this painting also helped (which I did today, by the way). Nothing beats art therapy. Except maybe a tropical cruise.

Flaming June At Night

This painting is a tribute to one of my favorite paintings, Flaming June, by Lord Frederic Leighton. I also painted it to put on my bedroom wall. I would buy a print of the original, but I hate prints. I'm kind of a snob that way. A print is like a piece of art without the soul. On that note, buy prints of my art here: imagekind. All kidding aside, it was fun taking a classical style painting and giving it a whimsical, impressionistic twist.

Painting + Listening to VAST = Heaven

Sometimes

This is the first painting I've done since the move from Orem to Springville (AKA Art City). The model is my brother. He's an uber talented indie film maker. He wanted a "light purple" face, so I gave him one.

Women In Art

Awaiting the Muse

The model is actually my sister who happens to be a very prolific and talented musician. This is the second time I've painted her with her guitar. Remember her face because she's going to be big some day.

I love the color I chose for the background--florescent red. I actually got the bottle of paint for 90% off at an arts and crafts store going out of business. Score!

Daydream 2

Once again I experimented with a limited and muted palette. I'm really pleased with the results--I think the dark colors really create a mood. The music, I'm sure, helped, too. I turned to my favorite painting music, Damien Rice's O. If you haven't heard it, you're really missing out.
