Discover Upstate Magazine



My work was featured in a recent article in Discover Upstate South Carolina Magazine! Click here to read the article on my swing paintings, as well as a piece about the local swing dance scene. (Once there, scroll down to pages 6-7)

"Treasure Among Weeds: A Portrait of the Artist"


16"x16"
Oil and Paper on Canvas

This piece was one of those that came together so easily and quickly that it shocked even me. I was especially happy with the ease of this one because it is the last piece for my show opening in June. More details to come on that very soon! And, yes, this one is a portrait of me as a little girl.

"On the Edge of a Story"


16"x16"
Oil and Paper on Canvas

I wish you could get a feel for the texture of these pieces. This one has much more dimension in it than some of the previous works. I love the smallness and simplicity of the figures in this more complicated background.

In honor of Mother's Day, I thought I would post another one of my larger pieces, as it features my mother and her younger sister. I love you mom!

Hands on Greenville Day

Saturday was Hands on Greenville day, and my office sent a team to the Open Bible Church downtown to do some renovations. I was fortunate to be able to work on a mural for them. I guess you can say this was my daily painting for the day! A huge thanks to the other members of my team. You guys are the best!

"Quack Attack"


6"x6"
Oil on Masonite
SOLD

One of my favorite things to have happened in Greenville so far occurred on Saturday- the Kenducky Derby. Just imagine hundreds of rubber ducks racing down the Reedy River falls! And, yes, they were all wearing sunglasses...

"Unused"


6"x6"
Oil on Masonite
$80

To purchase, email me with the title in the subject line.

My mom sent me this picture of an old Mill wheel down in Georgia. I love all the plants that have grown up around it due to years of unuse.
