Cougar Room

 The third room in the Magnetic Hill Zoo Education Center. It's a fantastic zoo, definitely worth checking out this summer!

The eagle is my favorite...can you tell?Haha. I like eagles so much I even have one tattooed on my shoulder, as white trash as an eagle tattoo may be, I like it.

Jaguar Room

This is the Jaguar Room mural. This is probably my personal favorite.I think it is the bold colors against the darker forest background that appeals so much to me. I loved painting the Jaguar pattern; such a beautiful animal!

Lion Room

We painted 3 murals in the zoo's education center. Each room is named after a big cat. This is the Lion Room mural...obviously. We have made some slight changes to some of the lions and added a Hornbill, but you can get the point.

                                               

Sea Turtle

 I painted this sea turtle on the wall in the Eco Dome, the exhibit of small primates and reptiles at the Magnetic Hill Zoo. My brother and I have just finished up a 7 mural project at the zoo and will be doing               more later in the summer. This was my first time attempting a realistic mural; I was pretty pleased with the results.

Grinch Organ

Sheet music, I made this as a last minute addition, out of an old pizza box.

                 My good friend Steve helped me teabag the keys to make them look old and grimy.

This was a prop for a Grinch/Thriller song in my church's annual Living Christmas Tree production.My friend Brandon made the actual structure and cut the pipes. Then my friend Steve and his dad helped me ( actually I mostly watched while they did all the work) attach the pipes. Then rigged up the smoke machine so smoke billowed out the pipes as the Grinch played. With the smoke and the lights it ended up looking pretty cool! Photo credit Monique Pearson.

Money Tree

                           

                              This is a "Money Tree" I painted for my friend Josie's wedding shower.

Houses

My good friend is a great real estate agent. When he sells a house he usually gets me to do up a sketch of the place as part of his closing gifts. He's been selling lots so he's been keeping me pretty busy with these. I'm thankful for the business! Here are a few samples, once I sketch them I usually put some sort of effect on them to add more visual interest.
