I have always felt called to the pheonix. Perhaps it was growing up a military brat, constantly reliving the cycle of new place, new life, new me, and then goodbye. But I've always gone in cycles, reinventing myself. I am rebirthing my website! Let it rise from the ashes.

I absolutely love painting the ombre of the firebird bag.

Yesterday for my son's birthday we went to Monster Jam. Now I'm normally in alternative scenes and events that don't really book out stadiums. So I don't really run into stadium policies. I was laughing when I saw the purse requirements. One of them only gave 2 dimensions. So I present a 2D purse.

I've been working on getting some of my smaller items on Etsy. Look how fun these little hand painted pins are.

I liked this one so much I made it twice. If nothing is selling, I'm just going to make somethings fun. And what is more fun than a Lisa Frank rainbow colored nautilus wallet?

Come find me set up in all my glory at the Wild Carrot in STL until 4pm today.

Check out this rainbow nautilus! This fun guy is going to be a wallet.

My latest art to tool into leather. I'm thinking a triceratops skull handbag. Or should I do a notebook?

So to introduce my art, I am a leather artisan. I believe in combining novel, new, and nature-inspired style with timeless artisan skills. No machines involved. Everything I do is hand tooled, hand cut, hand painted, and hand stitched. I an the machine! Check out my latest bags, budgie belt bags.

Giving the stereotypical Hello World. Here is my parrot Ella.
