Special Projects
Adding color and happiness to the objects around me!
These are my special, unique art projects that don't fit into the category of "mural" or "illustration".
I drew this 20-ft mural digitally in Adobe Illustrator, and then it was printed onto weatherproof vinyl and mounted in the children's area at the Zoo.
Hand-Painted Flower Pots
Wedding Favors
This project was fun because I had so much freedom with it. The bride-to-be asked me to hand-paint 5 flower pots in different designs of my choosing. She had no preferences, except that they should each be very different from the others. She planted flowers in each pot, and used them as centerpieces for tables at the wedding shower, and later as door prizes for her guests. I painted the pots with acrylic paint, and then sealed them with acrylic spray sealant. It took me about 4-5 hours to paint each pot.

Erie Humane Society
Rain Barrel Customization
Erie, PA
This project, run by the Erie County Conservation District, is meant to educate the community about the benefits of harvesting rainwater, and to showcase Erie’s local art talent. ECCD commissioned 50 artists to paint rain barrels which were then placed in locations throughout the city. My sponsor for this project was the Humane Society of NWPA, so my barrel was placed right outside their building.
