Hello #PortfolioDay!
I’m not currently looking for work, but I do sell a selection of nature illustrations via InPrnt (prints), RedBubble (stickers etc) and Bonfire (clothes).

You can find links or sign up for my newsletter on my website.

A digital gouache illustration of two kalij pheasants, one male with blue and steel feathers, and one female with white edged brown feathers with steely iridescence. They bow over a front foot to each other. The male has a large tail, head plume, and a red accent around his eyes. The female is less flashy but still wears a red face mask. A digital gouache painting of the front range of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, with rolling pine covered foothills and a red sandstone rock formation from Garden of the Gods in the foreground. The dramatic sky overhead is stormy with sun breaking through the pink and purple. A digital gouache and gold illustration of a Purple Shot Copper butterfly resting. Its orange wings are open slightly, shading towards purple on the outside and especially near its fuzzy body. Its long striped antenna wave over large dark eyes. The bright wings are edged in orange, black and white stripes, and block spots the wings. A digital painting of a ruby slippers Echevaria, a succulent known for its bright red velvety look when sunstressed. The green leaves shade to red on each of the three leaf rosettes. The leaves are pointed and scoop shaped, and they are edged in gold leaf to accent the geometry of the plant.

Buttons are back. Knobs are back. Dumb devices are back. Own-it-forever software is back. Print is back. Personal websites and chronological feeds are back. Touching grass is back. People keep saying 2015, but it’s not far enough. The entire 2010s were a mistake. We must retvrn to… 2009.

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

For day 13 of #ArtAdventCalendar I thought I’d show off my most Christmassy feeling #plant painting- Echevaria Ruby Slippers. It turns this fantastic crimson in full sun.

Mine was unfortunately eaten to nubs by my pet lionhead rabbit BunBun and is still recovering. 😅

A digital painting hand done using Procreate on an iPad, this ruby slippers Echevaria has a trio of fuzzy rosettes that turn from green at new growth to a deep crimson on the edges and older outermost leaves. It seems to glow, and has been accented with gold leaf to highlight the long, fleshy, drop shaped leaves and their geometric arrangement against the dark background.

Day 15 of #ArtAdventCalendar, an older chickadee sketch. This was digital, drawn by hand on a Wacom tablet, back when I was still using Photoshop.

Hello, day 16 of #ArtAdventCalendar. :) This is one of my favorites. I can smell and hear this forest.

#art #digitalArt #fantasyArt #trees
A digital painting of a woman in boots, a purple dress and brilliant blue cloak with long black hair steps down a rocky hillside covered in autumn colored brush. Tall pines with winter needles catch the sunlight from above the dense forest and surround her. Behind her is a more brightly lit clearing.

A mountain landscape from near Crystal Lake Reservoir in Colorado. Based on a photo taken by a good friend. ☺️ #ArtAdventCalendar #landscape #digitalArt #painting #alpine #mountains
A digitally painted spring landscape of a lake with a reddish rocky hillside that transitions into a meadow lined with pines and dotted with small puddles of snowmelt in the foreground. Beyond the lake are green and bluish mountains that stretch up into snowy peaks. The sky is blue with white clouds.

A gyrfalcon painted digitally, its creamy feathers all spotted with brown. It’s flying with its wings spread, feet tucked, and looks over at the viewer. The sun catches one bright eye.

Some kalij pheasants, beautiful birds, for the second to last day of #ArtAdventCalendar. I liked these two and how they bowed to each other, looks like a courtly dance.

I’ll add a process video in the comments for the interested. ☺️

Final #ArtAdventCalendar- what to share? I wanted a new #art piece but reality and arthritis in my hand said no.

This is a fav of mine, says Happy Holidays well! Thanks for all the ❤️ and appreciation on my pieces this year, and welcome to new followers.

#digitalArt #HumanMadeArt #cozy #HumanNotAI
A dark skinned woman with natural hair reclines on magenta cushions in front of a window. Outside the window is a city building and snow. She is cozy and warm in a coral robe and green pajama pants, and cradles a striped mug of hot chocolate on her stomach. Her natural hair surrounds a soft smile as she gazes at the viewer.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

I have officially launched TrueRef's new timed gesture tool (Flow) & free pose library (Pose)! Both are linked on trueref.io.

While limited right now, both will contain our full free library by the 1st. 🤍

A screen shot of TrueRef Flow, a timed gesture practice tool. It features a woman standing straight, with one hand up in a mage like gesture. A screenshot of TrueRef Pose, a free pose library. It features several images of an athletic woman poses in a variety of different ways.

It's okay, you don't have to do engagement tricks and the commercialized shtick here; you can just be a person and post art, it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be alright

I know twitter taught you this & sucked your soul out & art memes became the only way to communicate

it's over now, you can be free

Every year I make a BINGO sheet of smaller goals for the new year, rather than one big one. Here's a blank one for 2026 if you wanna do one for yourself.
A blank BINGO sheet with "survive" in the center square. One is meant to fill in each square with a goal for the coming year.

Somehow, it’s been my most productive year as an author.

If you ever have the experience of seeing a night sky out in the deep countryside you can understand this; it really is a fundamentally different experience, and I can't imagine it not being formative to people.
