Interview with Your Cavern

Earlier this month, I did an interview for a digital art blog called "Your Cavern". The interview showed more of my older work but it was fun to do an interview for someone who loved my art. You can check out the interview here.

Goodbye 2013, Hello 2014

Happy New Year!! Yes, I know it's two weeks into the new year, but I promised myself that I would stay away from the computer for several weeks during the holidays. 2013 was a good year, I worked on a lot of great projects, I bought my first home, and celebrated my five year wedding anniversary. I am looking forward to seeing what 2014 brings.

For the new year, I bought a limited edition letterpress calender, from the Vancouver Letterpress League. Each artist designed and printed one month. The calender is very beautiful.

I'm not huge on New Year's resolutions, but I think what I would like to do a little more art with my hands rather then using the computer all the time. In the last couple of years I have been into type and wanted to play around with lettering. I'm always looking at artists on Dribbble and Behance who do lettering and I am always amazed with the lines and beautiful flow in their work.  My husband bought me a calligraphy set with a great book for Christmas, so I will practice calligraphy in my spare time for fun.

One artist I have admired is Ryan Hamrick from Pittsburgh. Below he is lettering the word "Greetings".

Usually, in my blog I post things about my work, but in 2014 I would like to post more things like my process and inspiration. I'm hoping maybe twice a month as a start and we will see how that goes. I do have a lot of personal projects I want to work on in the next several months so we will see what happens.

Well 2014, let's see what you have to show me!
