The JEA Show

Posted on March 4, 2013 by shealaOctober 11, 2015

Other Christmas Gifts

Posted on January 29, 2013 by shealaOctober 11, 2015

Basics!

Posted on June 7, 2012 by shealaOctober 11, 2015

It’s nice to return to basics! Doing things in black and white means you really have to sort out composition and contrast and value. So I did this set of postcards for a Black and white swap. I also learned that … Continue reading →

Steampunk Pin-Ups

One of the reasons I like working on ATCs is that it gives me a chance to push past my regular comfy space and extend my reach. It sometimes  brings out the best in me or helps me to do … Continue reading →

Posted on April 30, 2012 by shealaOctober 11, 2015

Here’s the CMYK companion piece to RGB. It’s smaller at about 16″ x 16″. I did it to hang in a show that was themed 3 Color. Well no, I did it because it was in my head, but it … Continue reading →

Posted on April 13, 2012 by shealaFebruary 21, 2016

Posted on March 21, 2012 by shealaOctober 11, 2015

Where do ideas come from? Everywhere for me. Sometimes I hear people say things, I read a story, I see something beautiful; all of these things and more will make ideas pop into my head. A lot of times it … Continue reading →

Speaking of Back to the Beginning…

Posted on March 14, 2012 by shealaOctober 11, 2015

For me, over the last about two years, my style has really solidified. It’s been in short bursts and has been greatly aided by doing ATCs. I think signing up, having a deadline, picking topics that are both easy and … Continue reading →
