Some Artists Don’t Want to Sleep

My art mind clicks and tic tocks before or after I sleep. New ideas are slamming my brain and I wake up excited to draw what I see in the blackest room in my apartment. My eyes might be closed and the music in my ears isContinue reading “Some Artists Don’t Want to Sleep”

Abstract Attack on 6.27.2016

Good morning. A few days ago, I was driven to draw some bare bone illustrations on a very large scale in about an hour…it was just like I had no idea that there were even new images up there in my attic. It flowed out and I just closed my eyes and didn’t even thinkContinue reading “Abstract Attack on 6.27.2016”

Who Me? My Artwork? Newspaper?

Hurraahhh I made it in the newspaper!!! I don’t know how it got there and didn’t even know it was there. My sweetheart friend Jill Charters said congratulations in Facebook and I didn’t understand what for…she sent this over our chat box of an article in the Midland Daily News. Wait a minute…that isContinue reading “Who Me? My Artwork? Newspaper?”

Sassy Art Crash 2016

So you take two silly sassy art females (Allise Noble and Heather-Dawn Deogracia) and send them off to an art competition with a three hour deadline. Not only do they sit together, each work so hard that they don’t even speak above the sound of rad music of the cell phone. One is drawing a flock ofContinue reading “Sassy Art Crash 2016”

Brand New Art Realism and Not

Whoa tiger…seems that last month was making me do this art thing for hours. I sit on the sofa and just get lost in sketches.

Dream List 2016 “e” for effort project

I woke up very very early the other day with a powerful project in my head. It is called the “e” for effort non-profit foundation located in Midland, Michigan. The effort rewards the single person that wishes to be in participation of the community and puts in a “e” for effort. The individual intenselyContinue reading “Dream List 2016 “e” for effort project”

Gone Animal Lately! Humane Society Fundraiser

Sniff sniff sniff. That is my art brain when it is having a cold or crying from no inspiration. Then bam yesterday, I was about to take a nap and three things zipped through my attic (I have a higher room in my brain where I keep my daydreams, nightmares and desires). So freakin’ stuck on myContinue reading “Gone Animal Lately! Humane Society Fundraiser”
