Yay! My website is now up and running. Basically just a portfolio site right now. Prints of my general work should be available in November, but I probably won't be accepting commissions until after the new year. It does have more art than I've posted here. Apparently instagram can only be used on your phone, so I have to get that set up still and email all my images to myself to be able to post them.

Anyways, please check it out and (cringing saying this) 'follow me' on social media if you want to see my new works as I post them. Should be a new one of a spooky animal (not THAT spooky animal:green::rolleyes:) later this week just in time for Halloween:D

Great site (I do not like those overcrowded ones) and whow... I really am impressed with your style.

For me it has just the right ballance of "I know this" and "what in the world is going on there" (and I despise a lot of art ;) so here you go) and your colour-use kind of scares me in a good way (not being great with colour myself, I just sit there going "whoa" and "wow").
Thank you for sharing (again)

Thanks everyone! Really glad to hear people like my art beyond parrots and that the website was easy to use:) I tried to keep it clean and simple. I'm *hoping* to post 2 new pieces a week for a while until I have a nice, solid portfolio of my work. Thanks again for everyones support!

Brava, fellow artist! You have something I've always admired... and a little bit envied... and that is a completely novel look. You merge realism with a sort of pop-art abstraction, to form a totally unique style. I think I would recognize your work on sight!

Again, brava!

April, I love your new site! Very quick to load and easy to navigate as well.
The penguins stole my heart, although I actually love every one of your creations. I have a feeling you are going to be quite busy!

I have been super busy but I now have my Etsy shop up/connected the listings to my website with prints of my art available!

Unfortunately, preparations for all the remodeling/repairs being started on our home tomorrow have derailed my art production schedule so I won't have a new piece out this week. But to the few of you following me on Instagram, it'll be well worth the wait as I have been doing a little work and it's looking very cool thus far!
