Rainy Riso Print ☔️

I’ve been making images that depict a figure holding an umbrella. This speaks to the idea of finding joy amid all the doom & gloom.

Thanks to everyone who’s purchased one. It’s tough out there. I appreciate it!

Just so thankful to have painting and art making in my life. ❤️🎨

Losing yourself and making work with no expectations is good for you.

Reposting this one. The last time I posted it I was half asleep and there was a bunch of spelling errors.

I need to finish grading, update my website and send out a newsletter, but all I really want to do is get off these screens and paint. 🎨

Another 🍳 painting. #contemporaryart #landscapepainting #abstractart #painting

Tomasito. Always in the studio & making his presence known. 😻

Just spent 14 bucks on parking and 17 dollars on a burrito. It’s official, I can’t afford to live. #recession

TGIF WIP

My Cast & Cat piece is in a group show that opens tomorrow at Get Nice Gallery in Seattle.

This 🍕 is still in my studio. I’d love to get this one into a good home or collection.

Sometimes The Cat Plays Guitar
28” x 20”

Started this last Spring/Summer when our pear tree was plentiful and when we first brought our kitten, Tomasito home.

I repainted and reworked this one so many time before I was happy with it. Fitting as Fake Spring is happening in Portland right now. 🎨

A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says “don’t buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash. Designed by Martha Rich.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

Details of a 🍐 person

watercolor and india ink, cartoon guy coming out of box with ribbon, text says "I am present."

Gentle Observation 125 - "I am present."

with any creative project there comes a point where you need to stop talking about it, stop thinking about it, stop worrying about it, stop asking others about it, stop researching it... and just start making it.

and i always, always, always wish i hit that point sooner than i did.

Trying to survive and make a modest living these days is so freaking draining. 😣
