This year I participated in THE SOFIANER. This was a very personal piece for me, as I continue to struggle being a woman in Bulgaria.

Switching up from @nonamerocks, we’re giving leaves a go. Sometimes the best art happens without planning. I noticed these leaves everywhere on some of my ‘digital detox” nature walks here in Australia. Eucalyptus leaves are a sturdy leaf, and a beautiful feather shape (and the scent of the tree itself is intoxicating). I started collecting the leaves and bunches of them sat scattered on my table. It was only a matter of time when they were to meet their fate with the posca pens!

For Earth Day 2018, I and my favorite charity (no name) Art Group promote the use of reusable thermoses & mugs by hosting an online CupArt gallery. Supporters can view the online CupArt for a $1 donation to One Tree Planted. Our fundraiser ended in $1,181 in donations – that’s 1,181 trees planted, hooray!
I created some fun CupArt while in Australia. My “real” cups were donated to an art exhibition in Sydney.

I don’t knit, but by the time I was done these batches of illustrations I feel like I could confidently knit a sweater. Dozens of technical illustrations for this job, which involved detailed inspection of knitting swatches. It was nice to pick up some colored pencils again!
First Swatch Sample
Once upon a time, I wanted to be a medical illustrator. Then I found out that I needed to take classes in a morgue, so that idea dropped quickly. But I still find great joy in disecting anything other subject matter that doesn’t contain blood and guts. These made me happy.

Rock art was an idea that was brewing in my head ever since I traveled through New Zealand in 2015. We came across a beach in the South island that was covered by thousands of the most beautiful smooth white rocks. I gathered a handful and around the world they traveled with me.

December has brought upon deep cravings for any type of project that uses my hands….in ways other than typing on a keyboard. This desire, along with my recycling obsession and the holiday season, has led me down a crafty road of festive ornaments. Who knew a Brooklyn subway map could be so pretty? It’s fun to learn something new. Keeps the ‘ol noodle in check…

I was very happy to initiate this project this year. This is the (no name) Art Group’s 4th time doing Memory Portraits. Mine was done for Prasama. It is a 20-hour “meditation” portrait dedicated to Prasama. It was created by repeated patterns, each mark made in a spirit of kindness and compassion. Let it reflect the beauty of universal love – and that it not be restricted to just the few persons nearest to us, but to all living creatures in the world.

My travel journals have become my heart and soul. When I’m not “working”, there’s nothing I want more then to NOT finish something to completion. I don’t want to analyze it, but to enjoy the process without worrying about the end result. Sketching in my travel journals allow for just that. They also force me to put down the camera and really look at a person, place or thing in detail…to appreciate it and love it for all it’s beauty. Then turn the page, and start again…
