New Holiday Release: "Santa Daddy" (Original, prints and cards!)

Have you boys been good every day this year? If so, Santa has some really nice gifts for you to open. But if you've been naughty every night, then he's got one very special package for you to unwrap!

The original, as well as limited edition Gallery and Studio prints  are available for purchase at the Special First Day Price through Midnight ET tomorrow.

And for you early birds, "Santa Daddy" is my 2011 Christmas card and is now available as well. As always you can mix and match any of my greeting cards, and save when you buy more!

on the drawing board: in the tropics

I've done palm trees in a picture in the past, and I have to say, I don't enjoy them.  They're too geometrical for me.  I can't just splotch on dabs of color in a certain way 'create' leaves.  Palm tree leaves have lines and edges against the background that need to be clean and sharp.  Frustrating.

on the drawing board: sunning

I woke up today to a cool apartment and an outside temperature only in the 30's (Fahrenheit), but hopefully I'll get some of the heat radiating from my sun-warmed life guard.

on the drawing board: back to the beach

While it is fall here in the Northeast and I've already done my Hallowe'en piece, I find myself working on a hot life guard on a tropical beach.  Normally the seasons influence what I do but this new piece is a commission and I'm finally finding the time to do it, even though the project came to me back in January.

So for the next couple weeks I'll be conjuring up feeling of Summer, sun, sand, and sea and the coconut scent of island drinks and sun tan oils.
