It's been a while since I got back from my husband's book tour, but a lot of photos later I am finally updating about it. Needless to say it was a blast and it timed well with our 13th wedding anniversary. Got to see a lot of old friends and made some new ones, too.… Continue reading Book Tour Recap: Dixie-Narco edition

Drawings for May
I'll be participating in the Monster Drawing Rally again this year at SPACES in Cleveland. If you have never attended, it is a pretty wild and fun night. I have decided I will be drawing boobies. Lots of them. Info and artist list is here. It goes down May 4th and I'll be drawing from… Continue reading Drawings for May
When I Can’t Leave the Country, I Go Back to New Orleans
And from the warmth of New Orleans, I've come back to Cleveland. Snow on the ground, a nasty cold, and some trying work assignments. Welcome home! Although at this point I think we can call New Orleans my other home -- this was my fourth trip this year alone! The original plan was to go… Continue reading When I Can’t Leave the Country, I Go Back to New Orleans

New Painting: “Night Shift”
Oil on paper, 11x14 inches. Maybe it's the time I spent in New Orleans this year -- or the fact I'm wishing I could be there when I'm not -- I have been having a common theme of masks, lately. It's very hard to get the colors right on things when I can't scan direct,… Continue reading New Painting: “Night Shift”
NOLABound: the film
I'll be flying down during the New Orleans Film Festival for the premier of this! So if you are in NOLA in mid October come on out and watch me on the big screen with 'Monica in Hawaii' hair; I also get the sads because I feel disrespectful in the Lower 9th Ward being a… Continue reading NOLABound: the film
Summertime Artworking
There is a nice article in GOOD Magazine about the events I attended in New Orleans back in March. At the time I was quoted, I was doing my research, but sadly the salary ranges weren't too hot so I'm staying in Cleveland another year. Honestly, I'm still having a lot of things go wrong… Continue reading Summertime Artworking
My First Trip To New Orleans
I arrived home sweaty, stinky, covered in Sharpie marker (don't ask) and completely unused to the amount of activity that this trip provided. Boy was my husband so glad to have me home! This was one of the more amazing experiences of my life, and mainly due to the people I have met as a… Continue reading My First Trip To New Orleans
Weekend in Cleveland: a few art shows and a race
We had both the faculty show and juried show at BAYarts, as well as Mallorie Freeman's solo show at William Rupnik this weekend. A great turn out for both and it was fun catching up with people. A little miffed about the placement of my painting "Drip" as it was a little embarrassing to have… Continue reading Weekend in Cleveland: a few art shows and a race
