Nola Arts District Show

Hey everyone, I’m gearing up for a spring show at Gallery 600 on Julia Street, New Orleans in March.

The ART WALK is Saturday, March 6th 4:00-6:00, I hope you can come.

Here’s a sneak peek at a few of the paintings that will be there…

A gift from the heart

I was contacted about creating a very special Christmas gift from Angela to her boyfriend. This famous New Orleans store is on Canal Street, Rubensteins. Canal street has been a hub for shops and markets for over a hundred years. Angel’s boyfriend buys his suits there, as his father did and his grandfather. It’s now a family tradition.

This was a very customized painting, adding in his porsche, a street car & many Christmas decorations.

Kylie's Portrait

Minor changes are being made to Kylie, and major changes will be in the background.  

Signed, sealed, delivered.

Kylie's photoshoot was done over a year ago, she grew a lot since I last saw her.

Seeing the faces of the family when I deliver a painting is so much fun. I would like my art and my life to brighten the corner of a small place in this world each day. I love painting children, they inspire me with their sweet spirits & purity of heart. May we all become like children with a heart that is pure and full of love to share with others around us.
