My new Baby Chihuahua


Here's a quick photo of new little baby. She's a real cutie but quite a handful . Lexie Lulu Maria is spunky, sweet and spicey all rolled into one. She has our hearts wrapped around her little paws . It's been so great to have such a healthy pup. She loves to snuggle while I am doing computer work, on the couch or anytime she can get someone to pick her up. I've jokingly told my hubby I need to get a baby-sling so I can get some work done. I do hope she settles into not wanting to be held while I am in the studio. I find it a tad hard to hold a paint brush in one hand, and the chi in the other arm. It leaves no place for me to put the palette!

I'm apart of a new artist collective that will be launching very soon. Once it's ok to give the go ahead I'll tell you all about it.

But I knew you all wanted to see pics of the newest baby here.. isn't she a cutie!

Hilton in New Orleans Decorating with my art

I am excited to inform you that my art print " New Orleans Night Light" has been chosen to grace the rooms in the newly remodeled Hilton St.Charles. This is a wonderful opportunity for me to broaden my realm of influence artisticly. For my collectors, my art going more " mainstream" only adds additional value to the work they own.

For me on a personal note, I see this as a dream come true. I've worked very hard over the last 10 years trying to be successful with my art. At times it has seemed that I was the only one that believed in myself. Somehow I managed to stick it out and now it is paying off. I have lots of anticipation for 2007. Suceeding as an artist is very difficult but one of the most fulfilling careers.

For all my collectors, be watching for a by invitation only sale on my prints on canvas. They look incredible .

More later. I hope to post a photo of my new baby sometime soon. She is a doll!

Back from Paradise




We just got back yesterday from a weeks stay in Cozumel. I wanted to surprise my hubby with a getaway for his birthday. The weather was gorgeous for most of the week. Cozumel is a wonderful place to ge if you love sun, water and being able to do nothing if you so choose. We stayed at Allegro Resort. The staff there is the most hospitable and warm group of people. The water is beautiful, the food ain't bad, and the snorkeling is phenomenal. We did a trip to Palancar, Columbia and " Hollywood " reefs and had a great time although the water was a bit choppy and that made it a bit more strenous. It was nice to take a break after such a busy time before Christmas.


Needless to say I am excited about some great new opportunities I'll be sharing with you in the near future. Just wanted to check in quickly to say I am back and I'll have new works up for all to see soon.


I'll post more photos of Cozumel once I get them uploaded and tweaked so you can enjoy the beauty even if it's just by photo.
