A portrait of my Grandmother for my Mom. Happy Mother’s Day!

Happy May 4th!

A recent pen sketch. I’ve always loved drawing with pens, there’s something great about having to work through your mistakes that you’re unable to erase.

Beginning a “K9 Collection”. Little illustrations of the various dogs in my life and work. First one is Willow, a Bernese mountain dog.

Quick sketch…another upcoming story concept. Currently titled “The Sapphire Necklace”. I’ve had so many story ideas running through my head recently that sketches like these help me remember them.
