I think we can all use more cats these days. Meet Vater, rescued from a life on the streets and given a warm home full of love. His adopter alerted the local animal rescue to the feral colony Vater came from, setting them all up for much healthier and safer lives.

Drawing of a black cat with a white bib, and intimidating green eyes.
Celebrating love and kindness with this portrait. Lucien was adopted as a senior 9 yo. My initial sketch of him had to be revised, as I was trying to make him look "less angry." Little did I realize that expression is part of his charm! This portrait is in memoriam. Hugs and love to his family.

I'm giving away one of my Shelter Cat totes! It features Diamond, a senior cat who was dumped at the shelter where I volunteer, malnourished and matted. After being nursed back to health, this beautiful girl was adopted. I celebrate her resiliency & the community who helped.
Enter on my site!
"Cats and dogs living there - mass hysteria." haha, that line always makes me laugh. Anyway, moving on: Meet Bailey and Nutmeg! What an adorable duo these two are.

Some Shelter cat love. I adore my Sunday evenings at Long Beach Humane Society. And honestly, I adore all these cats to pieces. #adoptdontshop #sheltercats

1. Find out what Sojourner Truth REALLY said

5. Get a library card
I find such deep peace in observing and drawing leaves. Look at the way this oak leaf is so asymmetrical. The way the veins curve, one side is elongated, the other side seems to be stretching upward. It’s a beautiful tiny individual in our world. #oakleaf #wondersareeverywhere

New print alert! Of the drawings I created during #birdartweek2025, this little oriole made it to my website. i.e. he's available for your walls, OR on the couch, the kitchen, the game room. Because art everywhere spreads joy. And, we need more of that, for reals. #birdlove #oriole #birbs

Painting of an orange fluffy cat sleeping.
Meet Leo! An 8x10 commissioned pet portrait of a sleepy super-floof. I love an orange cat, man. It was important to incorporate a hint of a background on this one, to give a sense of Leo laying down and being super comfy.
