Lonnie's Bulldog Diner, Christmas Special!

I'm very excited to finally share one of my latest commissions, a spin off an older piece during one of my favorite seasons, WINTER! I was hoping to get this guy wrapped up by the holidays but I've been pretty booked and I couldn't stop until he was finished properly! For those still in their snowy months, stay warm and bundled and have a lovely time playing in the snow!

The Art of Taking Flight

I'm excited to share the work I contributed to my first short film at Moonbot. "Taking Flight" was an amazing project to work on and I had a wonderful time helping with the character lineup, costuming, coloring, background paintings, and even the 2d water fx (never done that before!) If you haven't had
the chance to see the film yet, follow this link! https://vimeo.com/182555047

Get Out and Play!

This piece is the first in a series that I'm very excited to share. When I was little, I grew up in an itty bitty town with one blinking stop light and oak trees in the middle of the streets. It was a wonderful place for any kid to really get the best out of those early years. My siblings and I used to imagine the craziest things while playing, from landing on the moon to pretend cooking shows using our backyard plants, it was a time full of some of my fondest memories. "Get Out and Play" is a series to inspire children preoccupied by too many technological distractions to strip down to the basics of their imagination and enjoy the magical years of being a child.

I'd like to say thank you to one of my best friends and the model for this piece, little Miss. Hannah Waddell. I've loved every moment of getting to play and be inspired by this little monkey who has one of the most amazing and playful imaginations I have had the joy to come across. Thank you for always filling my head with new ideas and for reminding me it's ok to get dirty while playing :)

Hilda!

I wanted to share some of the steps behind a recent commission I just wrapped. My lovely client Jennie is coming out with an awesome book to help you combat that voice in the back of your head that's always preventing you from reaching your potential.
