Rebranding

You may notice some changes in the coming months to my website and to my art in general. I have been doing some deep soul searching into who I am as an artist and how I want to present myself to the world. I want to integrate my writing with my art. My artwork hasContinue reading “Rebranding”

Ornaments

It is that time of year again. Time to crank out the ornaments. All of these are on birch slices. Birch isn’t bad to burn on, The grain isn’t as prominent as say oak, but it is still present. Still, I am able to get some clear lines and details. I do these year roundContinue reading “Ornaments”

Raven Steals the Sun

This piece has been a challenge. I have never used ink stain or the gold leaf before. I am afraid that it might be ruined once I apply the polyurethane. Here is my progress up to the scary last step. I’m crossing my fingers that it wont bleed. If it does, at least I haveContinue reading “Raven Steals the Sun”

Patreon Adventure

Today I set up a Patreon page. For those of you unfamiliar with Patreon it is a platform that allows people to support artists on a monthly basis. Artists generally give perks to the patreons that support them. For example, my tiers are below – Seed – $1 or more per month *My sincerest thanksContinue reading “Patreon Adventure”

While I do have a few items that feature gears, I’m trying to branch out of just sticking gears on it and calling it steampunk. (See Chap hop artist Sir ReginaldContinue reading “Steampunk Fun”

I’m busy drawing, burning, and listing these days. I post a lot of my works inContinue reading “Summer Inventory”

Painter

I got Corel Painter 2017 for Christmas, but have not been able to use it until today. It has been a lot of fun to play around with. I have only scratched the surface of the program’s capabilities. I am really looking forward to learning the ins and outs. For now, I’ll give you aContinue reading “Painter”

Just a Brief on What’s New

I have been fairly silent on the media front, but that does not mean I have not been busy. Toward the end of last year I did a test run of coloring books. I wanted to see if it was something that might sell. I had a pretty good response, so I am currently workingContinue reading “Just a Brief on What’s New”

Refreshing an Older Piece

I’ve had one bowl that I have taken from show to show. It just wont sell. Similar pieces have sold, but this bowl just wont budge. When I’m brutally honest with my critique, I would have to say that it is probably because the design wasn’t executed very well. It was one of my earliestContinue reading “Refreshing an Older Piece”
