After many requests, I made this sweet little owlet for ebay auction :o)  I'm so excited to share her with you!  She is made of recycled fox fur and has open/close eyes as well as other lifelike details.

Here's an example of three of his paintings... it was difficult to decide which ones to show you as I love them all, but this gives you an idea of what he does :o)

hard at work... or hardly working....

I still find it hard to call my creative time working.... there are times when it is hard work, but it still has the enjoyment of a creative outlet, so maybe I'm really hardly working!  Whatever I should call it, I'm busily creating three different animals... they are all surprises.  The only thing I'll say right now is that none of them are bears.  There will be more bears coming up after these three are done!  And now I'll get back to it!
