The Games Table is done!

After many late nights and googling of old game board pieces, I have finally completed the Games Table. Yahoo! Games have so many memories attached to them, and they can bring you right back to your childhood. The laughing, the fun and sometimes the flipping of the game board. Games are a big part ofContinue reading “The Games Table is done!”

The games cupboard … WIP

Well I must say that trying to be creative whole social distancing and working from home with a 4.5 year old has proven to be very difficult. It takes a lot of energy and time to plan and fill his days with positivity and to lessen the feeling of having no peers to play with.Continue reading “The games cupboard … WIP”

I am finally back at the easel with … Marble Marble

After my adventures down the inktober road in the fall my creative endeavours slowed to almost a halt. I have been struggling with some chronic bursitis in my shoulder and healing at that time was taking all my energy. Finally with the new year well underway I am feeling strong and ready to take theContinue reading “I am finally back at the easel with … Marble Marble”

#inktober my journey so far… day 9

I have never taken the inktober challenge as I have this year. A target for each day and a theme to help guide me through 31 days. I am almost 1/3 of the way in and so far so good! I know the days will come when it’s going to be hard, but I amContinue reading “#inktober my journey so far… day 9”

The Power of Greyskull!

Late last night I was able to complete He-man & Battle-Cat. My little brother was a serious fan of He-man. I clearly remember him wheeling his giant plastic sword around inciting the power of greyskull. Having a 4 year old around re enacting similar scenes shakes of the cobwebs off of old memories and theyContinue reading “The Power of Greyskull!”

A studio date with my son

This Wednesday afternoon my son asked me to paint with him in the studio. He has a painting easel set up next to mine in my studio. So down we went into the painting studio, we adorned our smocks, put some tunes on and began the painting adventure. For about 30 minutes we painted andContinue reading “A studio date with my son”

New year, new medium

If you have seen my other social media accounts you will have seen the newest pieces of mine have been drawn in pencil crayon. You would also have seen the addition of candy to my subject matter. I am nothing but inspired by these things. The ‘mom of two year old’ factor plays well intoContinue reading “New year, new medium”

Optimus Prime, more than meets the eye!

Transformers, I clearly remember the Autobots from Cybertrom (semi trucks that turned into fighting robots for those not in the know). How could you not remember something as cool as that. At the helm if the good guys, Optimus Prime the ultimate hero taking on the Decepticons. This piece is the forth larger work IContinue reading “Optimus Prime, more than meets the eye!”

The View Master, the first virtual reality toy

I love this new piece, The View Master. I can clearly remember sliding the little white disks with tiny cells into the slot atop the red View Master, pressing my eager eyes to it revealing a 3D image and the beginning of a story. A toy that many generations have had, and as I recentlyContinue reading “The View Master, the first virtual reality toy”
