Welcome to my Art Book.
A mishmash of my own art, along with the work of artists/photographers who inspire me.....Created to support my Three Rivers Deep series.
Book 1 SUN CATCH HER...
Hello and welcome! Thank you for kindly looking through my art. Let's get started.

The above lovely is the cover I magicked up for the first book in the Three Rivers Deep series SUN CATCH HER. Created in Photoshop. There's at least 10 different photos voodooed together here (I think?). Stock photos sourced from Shutterstock.
I created the image below as support advertising material. Photoshop again. Shutterstock images, I believe five. And for anyone ever obsessed with the Vampire Diaries? I don't know if you recall what the series logo looked like on the CW. But that's what I modeled the Three Rivers Deep logo here after. Vampire Diaries logo had the drop of blood... I used a drop of water. The text arrangment is also similar.

So I mentioned Christmas ornaments in the intro. I'll give you a few here. I'm beyond lucky to have gotten a graphic designer position post college doing art. "Treasured Scenes" brand ornaments are one of the fun things I get to design.

I love love drawing birds! Owls are the best. This guy here was designed for a client in Canada.

This was an enjoyable project. First time I was asked to do a cemetery statue. The Spanish moss hanging from the trees was particularly challenging. It has to be detailed, but soft, so its presence retreated to the background to leave the statue front and center.

The computer art I create is sent to a factory in Colorado, where they imprint on the ornaments. This is a photograph of one. Created for an organization out of North Carolina to celebrate Swan Days.
I also create cat trees! Here's my one kitty, Tootsie, hanging out. She's quite the cat tree model, haha.
Wish there was a way for everyone to spam me with their pet photos. Oh well. Maybe comment here & tell me your pet(s) name(s)? Or if you don't have a pet (sob!) what animal would you like to have. And their name!

So there's a sampling of what all I am involved in, visual art wise. I'll post more cats trees and ornaments in future sections. ........ And did you know there's a way to make your book covers come to life? Moving gifs, yes! In the next section I'll show you how I did it to my covers, and how you can too!
Do you have an art book? Or know of any good ones? Share it with me in the comments. I'd love to add more to my Art Book Shelf. I'll browse, vote, comment. I hope you'll do the same for me :)
