I Do Custom Graphics

Are you looking for custom graphics that express your unique brand?

Are you in need of a few graphic icons to use on your website so that it doesn't look like you just opened it from a can? Have a cute idea for a product for your Etsy shop that you don't have the time or design skills for? Or maybe you just finished a cool app, but it doesn't have any style.

I can help...

As a matter of fact, here are some quick custom graphics that I did just this afternoon for an app!

I'm happy to talk with you about your graphic needs - just send me an email!

The mud is fine for quilting this morning. I’m experimenting with making larger quilts and also trying to keep both myself and the site neater. I Learned a few things with this one but I’m sure this process will continue to evolve as I ga
A bit of sunshine after the rain means it’s time to try a new quilt. My stamp prototype is out of the kiln and this afternoon was perfect to test it out. It works so I’m going to continue on with the full version which hopefully should
Today I was walking by a familiar construction site on campus. I’ve been watching the activity and mud there for weeks. Today it was vacant and this little scrap of wood caught my eye. It’s a wonky impression that reminds me of free form
Today I went out in the drizzle to play in the mud and experiment with this idea. I don’t have dedicated tiles or stamps designed for this project yet. What I do have is my watercolor palette that I designed this summer. I experimented with a
The seed of an idea: Today I went for my weekend walk in the woods and I was thinking about this week’s conversations regarding my senior thesis. One of the things I want to explore is creating works in situ that are temporary and minimally di

My moments of creative time are hemmed in by work and life at the moment but I am striving to find little nooks and crevices to make my own. Much like this lichen that I have scraped into a cup my growth is slow. But it has managed to cover huge swa
My Easter basket woven under the tutelage of Ramona Lossie. The splits and bottom are white oak. I took my little basket on a sabbath walk this morning. I first used it to help me transplant a couple of yucca plants. There has been a row of yucca p
This photo sums up many things for me at the moment. Nearly thirty years ago I left Appalachia and until now have not been able to find a way back home. Graham County has a median household income of $39,000 and almost 20% of residents earn less tha
I seem to excel at creating difficult to document works. This was shot this afternoon during a private viewing. This is my second floor installation and I learned a great deal about material and interaction within the gallery space. Unlike Dry Creek

A couple of years ago I ran across a blogpost by artist Helen Terry sharing the details of a mark making challenge that she had recently completed — 40 Days of Mark Making. Her post was inspiring but it was the ‘forty days’ that int

Just after the New Year we spent a week in #Nagshead. The first week at the beach we’ve ever had. It. Was. So. Good. I drove seven hours with the boys through rain, sleet, snow, ice, and high winds in a fifteen passenger van so that we didn&rs
