September in the Studio

Apologies for the much delayed update — what can I say except this past year has been hard. Hope you and yours are safe and well. FYI, If you subscribe to my Patreon, I update there frequently with glimpses into the projects I’m working on, my sketchbooks, etc. But here is a much overdue general update!! Thanks for you patience, and thank you especially to the art directors, creative directors, patrons, and customers who continue to support my artwork during this challenging time!

This week, a series of my paintings opened at Nahcotta in Portsmouth, NH. You can visit the available artwork online at this link, or in person in Portsmouth through the month.

Meanwhile, here in San Diego, San Diego Design Week has officially kicked off! On Saturday, September 11th at 11am, I’ll be leading a journaling workshop at the Library Shop (outdoors, socially distanced, masks and ADVANCE REGISTRATION required) — Free to register. Details at this link.

At this workshop, I’ll be sharing prompts from within my book, GROWTH: A Journal to Welcome Personal Change, which you can get online from my shop, with bonus page marking sticker sheets! I’ll be giving away a copy of the journal at my workshop as well, where sales will benefit San Diego’s Public Library via the Library Shop. I’ll be signing copies of my other books afterwards as well.Free Page Marking Stickers while supplies last

Speaking of places to shop with books, I recently painted a mural inside San Diego indie bookstore, The Book Catapult, located at 3010-B Juniper St in South Park!
