Drink Specials - Bar Signs

These signs were created for recent drink specials at Terminal 5.  The bottom photo shows their placement at one of our bars. I liked these designs enough that I veered off my usual Guinness-only habit and tried a couple new things. "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." -Benjamin Franklin

Greeting Card Designs

Here's a couple of greeting card designs I made for my Mom. The birthday card is a favorite so far, and my older sister, currently creating a business plan for honey/mead production, want me to do labels with bears hidden in the landscape. I can be paid in honey, yes.

Paper Bag Friends pdf book (Free! Free! Free!)

Hello! New creation! Whenever I get down in the dumps, I draw the cutest thing I can think of on a paper bag. Now, collected in a PDF book format I present "Paper Bag Friends." If you need a little lift for the winter blues or a companion to the celebration of the emerging spring, send me your e-mail address and I'll pop over a zipped up copy just for you! Hope it makes you smile.

A Toast To Us

Rumi says: "By love’s soul, bring me a cup of wine that is the envy of the sun, for I care aught but love." Though some heady special cocktails are never a mistake at a wedding, at the very least for the power of suggestion. And certainly to get the dance floor greased up.

Mullet Reign of Terror

Midsommar Goddess

To celebrate our Swedish heritage, my friend Kirsten Housel and I are holding a party for Midsommar on July 21st. In Sweden, the sun lasts all day and through the night, and in a country where at other times the night does the same, it is a reason to celebrate! Traditionally, there are many flowers, food, and bonfires, which makes this yet another Swedish holiday carried over from pagan times virtually intact. This explains why my otherwise quite conservative mother wholeheartedly believes in faeries. Anyways, this is a day for the fire goddess, a goddess of fertility and creativity, so everyone rub your bellies, put on your flower crowns, and enjoy!
