"SIMPLE"

I've had a lot of friends in my life, but she was the one that taught me the importance of letting go. She was always happy and uncomplicated. Her desires were few and her pleasures simple. She chased away troubles and scattered joy and laughter in her wake til her last day on earth. A simple Illustration style suits her best, I think. A quick 15 minutes in Photoshop.

Your artwork is wonderful. This painting is charming, wistful and full of the simple understanding between nature and all animals. I traveled through your site and saw such wonderful paintings. That chair is AWESOME... I want one!

I really enjoyed your work. You've got a great touch for fantansy art. There's a little 'sick fuppy-ness' about you as well.

Absolutely beautiful. I was very touched by your image since I just lost my dog rudy who was 9 years old. someone poisoned him on january 13th. He was my best friend and someone I could always count on to give me unconditional love.
