  • BBW Diva Devil Woman!

    I was talking with a friend of mine and she’s a BBW and she was lamenting all the horror movies, the demons are always skinny and lanky – and I thought about it, she was right.
    I couldn’t think of one single sassy, BBW demon.
    So I made one – this one is super sassy, rockin’ a little red demon outfit and she has a bewitching new pitchfork , you know for poking. 😉

  • She Never Minded He Looked Like an Elephant

    True love sees past all our dents and dings as humans. We see the inner person we love not what’s on the outside.
    I am lucky to have found that in this life and so did the two people in this improved photo. She never minded he looked like an elephant, sprayed water all over the bathroom with  his truck on Saturday night bath night and left peanut shells in the bed, she loved who he was and found all that stuff totally endearing. #marriage

  • Russell’s Awesome Invention

    Russell made a great invention. This marvelous machine would take your inner self and make your outside match your inside.
    He tried it on his dog first, and the dog became even more beautiful.
    He tried it on a mouse and the mouse became stunning.
    Finally, he tried it on himself and he unfortunately had his face rearranged into a gigantic sphincter.
    Then no one would fund his project. _____________________________________________________________


  • Let’s Play Said the Fish to the Mermaid

    This started as a blob of pink paint on a piece of watercolor paper. I found it after it dried. So i drew a circle around it, then I decided it was a pink pearl that a little fishy was holding in his fish teeth.
    And then I thought, wouldn’t it be great if the pearl belonged to his best friend, a mermaid?
    I love painting mermaids, especially drawing the scales on the tail – that is super fun to me (yeah I know, I’m weird).
    I think it was also inspired because the fish tank on the second floor leaked and my side of the bed (of course) is wet – I think I”ll have to camp out on the couch in the living room tonight until it’s dry.

    This will make a great addition to your collection of our art – bid now!

  • Your Uncle Bee

    I am a huge fan of honey bees. I don’t particularly like honey that much but I love bees for what they do.
    If it was legal in Toledo, I’d keep bees but alas it is not.

    You can thank a honey bee for your even being here and if you would, think of them as family members.
    In fact, consider this your Uncle Bee. 😀

  • On August 3, 1901, Jebidiah Wrote the Funniest Joke EVER

    I am absolutely loved this guy’s face. He’s got the tiniest little smirk, like he knows something you don’t and it’s REALLY funny. He really looked like he was just holding back from busting into laughter.
    I imagine he was a pretty awesome fellow to know in walking life.

    My thought was that he wrote the funniest joke EVER – and now we have to wonder what it is.

  • Stalker Moon

    We were watching the movie “Arthur” and there’s this bit where the love interest of Arthur tells him when she was a little girl, she believed the moon followed her and it meant she was going to be something special.
    It got me thinking – what if it wasn’t an optical illusion, what if the moon really was following you?
    How creepy would that be?

  • Red Ribbon Guy


    I wanted to do something different with this guy.
    He had the usual hair and the usual suit and the usual expression you see over and over and over in vintage photos (yes i know why people rarely smiled in these old photos ).
    And so I wanted to make him special, unique even.
    Everyone deserves that.
    So i started with some amazing blonde hair then it needed something…. a hat? No…. a RIBBON.
    And here you have Stanley with his amazing hair with this amazing ribbon.
    He will be the envy of all your other art on your walls.

  • When I was 5, I pretended I was a tiger with a very long tail

    I was the youngest in my family.
    My oldest sister was 24 years old when I was born, and my other sister was 10 years old. Needless to say, no one was really interested in playing with me so I spent a lot of time with pets and on my own.
    One thing I vividly remember is LOVING to get a piece of yarn and be a tiger …. a tiger with a long tail.
    I could do that for hours…yeah I was a weird kid, it didn’t get any better when I got older. 😀

    And I love making Artist Trading Cards or ACEO’s (
    Art Cards, Editions and Originals) – you’ve been warned.
