Be Nice. No AI. Self realized artist, Renaissance woman and serial entrepreneur. Done a lot of stuff. Lived a lot of life. Traveled, loved, learned, eaten that, drank that, did that... I have been an artist my entire life, but these days I mostly doodle.

"Kaleidoscope"
We all shine under the right circumstances.
An old white chair sits in the sun flooding into a dusty gray room from a nearby window. There are birds on the floor and chair, and while in shadow they appear to be blackbirds, when the sun hits them the are brilliantly multicolored and shine with golds, reds, emerald greens and violets.

"Spirit of The Trees"
Can we take a walk amongst the trees? Tread the softened leaf strewn way. Listen to the songs of the woods the sounds abound as life surrounds.
From the rising of the moon to the dawning of the day.

My latest hand embroidery on denim for a client in the US.
Hand embroidered denim jacket, the Spirit of The Trees. Can we take a walk amongst the trees? Tread the softened leaf strewn way. Listen to the songs of the woods the sounds abound as life surrounds. From the rising of the moon and the dawning of the day Rest now, be at peace, there in the bower my heart's at ease and we will intertwine betwixt both leaf and vine, to share in life & leave a mark for those that chose to wander and embrace

'Message in a Bottle' 2022, oil on aluminium, 57x57cm (22.5x22.5"). The 3rd in my Navigator series. Shown at NERAM as part of @beautifulbizarre.net's Interconnected group show, and in my 2022 solo show at Beinart Gallery in Melbourne. Sold through Beinart Gallery. #art #surrealism #hyperrealism
A woman with short violet-white hair has her back turned to the viewer while her head looks up to the left in profile. Greenish-aqua clear water rises up to the bottom of her ribs, about a 5th up the composition. She watches a canary in the air that appears to have come to life from the tattoos beared on her back. The canary holds a string in its mouth connected to a tiny bottle with a tinier message inside. It flys toward the left as if going for assistance. The woman's right hand reaches out to the left steadying the message bottle as the canary begins its flight. The woman's left hand reaches over her right shoulder feeling at the skin on her back where the canary tattoo was once ink. Other canary tattoos cover her back. Near her left shoulder blade another canary appears to be coming to life from another tattoo, with head, chest and one wing appearing three-dimensional as it begins to animate and lift off.

It's been many years since I was working with pen & ink. Now that I have more free time at my disposal, I'm thinking about painting and drawing again.

Here's a quick little whimsical coral reef drawing for today's #FishyFeb
Art piece of a colorful drawing of red corals covered in darker circles and stick-like turquoise corals. There is a school of whimsical rather than realistic small silvery fish like minnows or sardines swimming around the coral.

I enjoyed this book
Its a pre-sequel. I think I liked it better than the first book.
