I finally sat down and got good stock photos of almost all of my paintings. This is something I have tried to do several times but go distracted everytime. And I still didn't get to the watercolors and the paintings that are stashed away from college. But going through all of the pieces that I had easy access to really gave me a lot of confidence. I think it is a thing with all artists - with anyone who puts their everything into creating something - but it never feels good enough to share. I have so much work that never gets looked at, never gets admired. And what is the point of painting and creating something that no one will see. Sure, art is about creating and getting a thought out of your head and onto the canvas. But a big part of painting that I think is most important is to share that work with others. To let them see it and create their own meaning and interpretation of it. So please stay and look at all of my art, interpret it, get something out of them that means something to you personally. I will have a lot more posted in the next couple of weeks.

If you read this far, you are my favorite type of human! Leave a comment with what my work means to you and share with a friend!

Also, everything is for sale! Send me a message if anything speaks to you :)

Does photography of my paintings still fit within the confines of a photography page? I think so..

I low-key impressed myself with this piece. Like most, I sometimes convince myself that I am not enough. Not an artist enough. But seeing this piece flow and come into it's own was a nice reminder that I am allowed to call myself an artist. Fame and fortune, or even sales, doesn't make you an artist. Making art, for me or anyone else, makes me an artist.

Anyway, I hope my ramblings remind someone else that they are artist enough. Even if it is only me :)

Oh and shout out to Kaitlyn for knowing me well enough to save her broken mug for one of my many random ideas!

These were the only pictures I got at pride this weekend. Someone passed my friend this balloon.. thing, I quickly snapped like 7 photos on my iPhone, and then he passed it on to another person there. It was like a scavenger hunt watching this balloon backpack and a few others making their way through the loud and proud q***r people of Cincinnati. Watching people's faces light up when someone asked if they wanted it next. I wish I brought my camera to get some more photos, but I am so happy about these!

I'm still experimenting with my Minolta Maxxum camera and the cracked lens I got off of facebook marketplace. Probably just one more roll of practice and experimenting and then I'm ready to really get working with it.

Please share this post and help me get my photos to a wider audience. This is my dream and every share gets my art in front of at least one more person than I couldn't otherwise reach.

I was taking pictures off my balcony the other night and noticed a black dot coming in and out of focus in the middle of the photos. I changed lenses to see if it was a blemish in the lens, but the black dot was on those images too. Then, I took off the lens and there was a little tiny black speck on my camera sensor. By the time I cleaned my camera and put the lens back on, the lighting had changed and I had missed my shot.

Not to worry - we have photoshop!

Nope! My 5 year old (or so) macbook if finally starting to falter, and refuses to run photoshop anymore. So this will be a " " photography page for a while, I guess. I personally really enjoy posting the raw versions of photos; and trying to capture the beauty of the subject in the original shot.
