Summertime in the Studio
A few years ago I started incorporating a slower summer into my yearly rhythm. It’s kindof the only time I can slow down… because I’m so busy Sept-December with events and Christmas orders, and after the New Year I’m usually still trying to catch up on all the things that had to wait during the Fall!
Finn and I did some extra hiking, and Travis and I got to celebrate our 13th Anniversary on our anniversary this year! We also got to spend some time with family and got to the beach a couple days.
I’ve also been working to get ready for this year’s Fall and Christmas Events! I’m doing more indoor shows this year, so I’ve been working on a new indoor setup that I’m excited about!
As always, I’m also drawing pet portraits every week! My current turnaround time is early to mid September, so if you have a project in mind, reach out to me anytime!

When you have the Sweetest Boy Ever
“Rut is the sweetest boy ever. If he isn’t running around like a lunatic then he is somewhere close to one of us, we call him our stage 5 clinger. He loves butt scratches and playing tug of war with the 1 rope that he hasn’t been able to destroy.” -Rut’s Mom
I can verify Rut’s Mom’s story- because she sent me a variety of photos and videos to use for reference for his portrait! He’s definitely very affectionate, and very loved!
The Portrait is a gift for Father’s Day, so shhh 🤫 Haha! It's ok, Mom said Dad isn’t online a ton, so it’s ok to share!
Want to watch Rut’s portrait come to life? Click below to see a quick process video that takes him from pencil outline to bursting off the page! And to all you Dads out there, Happy Dad’s Day!
