I was super excited to be hired by Origins to make charcoal drawings to promote their charcoal mask.  I was in Tucson this past weekend at the Park Place Mall.  I got to meet and draw a bunch of awesome ladies.

This early spring I was commissioned to make some paintings for Chevy's Mexican restaurant in Southern California.  The paintings are printed so they are in all of the restaurants.  I made seven of them but these were my personal favorites.

I had a booth at the Phoenix Art Festival the second weekend in December and I was able to hang out and paint some cool folks.  I also drew some unsuspecting muralists as well as some of the volunteers and workers at the fair.

St. John Knits

The first weekend in December I drew at St. John Knits, a very upscale clothing store at the Scottsdale Fashion Square (and at other locations).  I drew their mannequins, the customers and this awesome group portrait of their saleswomen.  Each of them posed for me individually and I placed them all together.  The woman were very nice and so were the customers.  And I got some fun marker drawings out of it.

I recently completed a house portrait commission.  The home was a really cool modern home that the owner was moving away from.  I loved the lighting.

For the past couple of weeks I was hard at work on a voter registration campaign for Funny or Die and Next Gen Climate.  I made portraits of celebrities and comedians who were interested in promoting voter registration.  My husband did the graphic design.  To see the entire portfolio click here: Next Gen Climate Voter Registration Portfolio
