Inspiration | Earthy Palette

Pussy willows on the first day of spring.

A lovely pyrography silhouette from 1904.

Withered pine needles. I love that rusty red.

I'm slightly obsessed with Chan Luu's wrap bracelets.

The carved bird is from Little Byrd Vintage.

Pretty grey feathers found on my walk today.

The window seat in my studio. A warm and cozy spot.

Patterns Everywhere I Go

Floss Silk Tree

Bromeliads

Begonia Maculata

Whisk Fern

We just spent a much needed break in the sunshine state.

A visit to the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens is always enchanting and

I had to share a few pictures with you. No doubt they will inspire some new work.

Anyhoo, I am back in the studio looking out on six more inches of snow!

Hoping spring will come sooner than later. Savoring the memories of the last few days.

 They posted a little Q & A with me and are having a book + print giveaway!

Have a great week all!

Changes Afoot

The snowdrops are blooming!

Life changing bread. 

A little nature collection at my studio.

A soupy green wash on my palette.

Tufts of green grass down by Pantherskin Creek.

There's still snow on the ground but there are changes afoot.

Wishing you all a wonderful week!

Signs of Spring

I'm banishing winter away with a bunch of tulips.

Yesterday was so promising with little signs of spring outside.

And then the snow started falling last night. One more storm. 

Looking ahead to warmer days, I'm finally getting to work on a little series 

that I've been thinking about for over a year. Twig typography!

I love, love, love type and fonts and hope you do too.

I'm nearly half way through the alphabet and 

I can't wait to see all of the letters assembled together!
