My Gratitudes...

Everyday I post my 5 Daily Gratitudes on my Twitterfeed. It’s my way of being grateful for small things in my life, and to help me stay grounded. I decided a long time ago that I really wanted to do a webcomic based loosely on my life, and my funny family. This comic is a combination of those two ideas. Being grateful, and the joys, and frustrations, of being a part of something bigger than yourself. A family.

Pencil Shavings

This is my personal blog. I write a lot about art, about my family, and about going to school. But I also write about politics and the environment and gardening and all kinds of miscellaneous stuff that filters through my head.
Please feel free to comment. Otherwise I may feel like I’m just talking to myself.

Commissions

I love doing commissions. Creating something unique and original for a client is one of the joys of being an artist.
 
One of my specialties over the last few years have been children’s portraits. Children’s portraits are a special challenge, and one that I love. Mostly I do portraits in watercolour, but I have done portraits in acrylics, and in pastels that have turned out wonderfully.
