Cowboy Troubadour :: Nursery

December 15, 2013

Recently I was contacted by my friend Kim to create a piece of artwork for their baby boy's room. The nursery designed for him is absolutely adorable, all it needed was a portrait of the family dog to display! I loved creating this piece for such a sweet family, and I know they are going to enjoy that baby boy when he gets here!

Also a BIG thank you goes out to my awesome mother for playing with baby Gabe so I could finish this in a timely manner!!

Here he is, Troubadour in all his glory:

Turtle Sunrise :: Illustration

March 21, 2013

I am so thankful for the opportunity presented to me earlier this year by my sweet and talented friend, Ann Higginbottom. Ann had been dreaming about the creation of this book for years and I was so honored when she asked me illustrate Turtle Sunrise. Illustrating a book has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl! I love how God is constantly placing people like Ann in my life to help me glorify Him and take me on new adventures. I hope you enjoy Ann's story of three turtle brothers and their journey to the sea!

You can purchase Turtle Sunrise here!

Thank you for taking the time to view some of my work :)

North American Wildlife

January 8, 2013

I was recently asked to create two paintings for a pediatric dentist's office in Texarkana, Texas. The theme was North American wildlife and I could not have been more excited to begin working on these paintings! When I was a little girl I was constantly drawing wild animals in my sketch books so getting to create them for children on such a large scale was really fun for me. Thank you Preston Spindle for taking these photos of me with my latest paintings and putting up with my big painting messes in our little home!
