Orange Space Kitty

"Orange Space Kitty"

12"x12"

Another commissioned work for a friend. My friend Josh wanted a special gift for his room mate Sarah's birthday. He informed me of her favorite colors, sherbet orange and purple. He wanted a cat with an outer space environment. I think it turned out really well!

Stella Cat & Glitter House

"Stella Cat & Glitter House"

25"x25"

This is a commissioned piece made for my friend Stephanie. She asked for a house and a portrait of her cutie cat Stella. I made a magical looking cat house and placed little stella in the door frame. There's a crown on top because Stella demanded one. I put a gold lattice frame around the piece.

KAPOW!

"Kapow!"

12"x12"

I cut thin triangle pieces from hand sprayed paper and layered them on top of one another to create depth. The triangles are coming out from the center creating an explosion of color, shape and pattern. The shape can be seen as an explosion, flower, star or even a colorful sea urchin. I like to see it as a burst of light, an explosion of playful color. Pasted onto natural wood, there is a fluorescent orange mist sprayed over the piece.

Onward & Upward

"Onward & Upward"

4"x23.5"

I cut out the same sized triangle and arranged them across the long board until they seemed well balanced according to color. The banner is also cut from paper and handwritten with colored pencil. The frame is painted with a blue pearl paint, that has a light shine.

Magic House

"Magic House"

12"x12"

Perfect for a house warming gift. I actually designed this piece with a young couple in mind. I use lace, string and yarn to create designs and then spray paint over them to make unique hand sprayed paper. I then start to cut pieces, push and play until it feels balanced. I limit myself to triangles, other than the square with a cut out door. After the pieces are adhered to the bare wood, I sprayed a mist of purple, teal and gold to make it feel magical.

These are some examples of the papers that I make and use.
