Hi Friends,

Here's a preview of some new designs that will be in the shop later this week.  As always if you'd like something custom made for you just send me a note through the shop and let me know how you'd like to customize it.

Best,

Helloooooooo Everyone!

Finally a warmish day here in NYC and a very cool market tonight.

It'll be Ridgewood Market's first every Night Bazaar, celebrating their 2 year anniversary.

I've made a ton of new cards and paintings and I hope some New York locals will check it out too.

Visit the Ridgewood Market facebook page for details and to rsvp for this awesome market - plus there will be brunch served, at NIGHT!  Gotta love that!

The Nightmare Before Christmas

One of my favorite movies of all times by the magical & wonderful Tim Burton.

Remember as a kid when Halloween and Christmas were two distinct holidays and now....all the big box stores have the two side by side.  Candy corn and candy reindeer poop.  It used to kind of bug me but....now I'm guilty of having both holidays coexist.

Surrounded by Halloween decorations and after a good pumpkin picking session I set down to sketch out a mini painting of where I'm super excited to be selling this December, the Chelsea Market as part of the wonderful Etsy NY Team.

I couldn't be more excited!  So while I'm planning outings to pumpkin patches and filling goody bags for Trick-or-Treaters I'm humming Christmas tunes as well.

What are you up to this time of year?
