Chalk N' Awe

Lunch bags for Winter Guard 2026! Unfortunately, my Lil'Bestie got a performance-ending injury early so her season was cut short. But she still showed up for rehearsals, still cheered on her teammates, and still pushed through all her heartache to stay connected with the sport she loves. Her season may have ended earlier than expected, but she's ready to hit the field for band camp this summer and take the floor at WGI in 2027.

My husband suggested we move my art room to our unused front room. I really, really, really wanted to say no 🙈 Glad he didn't let me 🥰

First chalk of 2026 is something a little different! Had a long, but successful day at the The Dayton Regional STEM School creating a special Welcome Back from Break message. And, yes, that is a 15' ladder against the wall, and yes, my shoulder is killing me 😂. But totally worth it, and I hope everyone enjoys seeing it as much as I did creating it. Happy New Year!!

Design inspired by the beautiful work of Thaneeya McArdle - Art & Illustration

Trying out some new acrylic markers I got yesterday with this rock duo! Did you get art supplies this year? What are you making?

Finally made it over to Light Up The Mound Pumpkin Glow to drop off this little trouble maker. I hope they have a great turnout!!!

Excited to share my 2025 pumpkins for the The Stoddard Avenue Pumpkin Glow . My total this year is 10, which isn't as many as I would like, but doing the intricate designs really takes so much time. I do love them though, so I can't be too sad it's only ten. Glow is Monday 10/27 & Tuesday 10/28, 6p-10p with lots of amazing pumpkins and a great food truck lineup!!

It's almost time for the so I started warming up my carving arm tonight with this happy couple from . Thanks to for having carving pumpkins on sale early 🎃
It's also my 22nd wedding anniversary, so they seemed fitting ❤️

A little Bride of Frankenstein with the Pearl Earring for my piece today taking inspiration from the Scarecrow theme of "Works of Art/Masterpiece". Had a great time, even though it was SO hot for October in Ohio.

Year 10 at Art on the Commons and I am so grateful to for allowing me to recreate their beautiful fan art of everyone favorite Cat and Bird duo. Thank you to for having me back again, and to the awesome crowd who were just as excited about Derpy and Sussie as I was.
