Happily married singer, songwriter, guitar player, and birder. I take a lot of pictures, but I'm not really a photographer. A few things I believe in: Peace, music, birds, love, and myself. Please, no DM'S
Thanks for stopping by!
Peace.......period.

Day 7 of #BirdArtWeek2026 🪶 I’m super late, but I finally finished! The last theme is #charismaticendemics . I chose the San Diego Cactus Wren, an endemic subspecies that is seriously threatened due to habitat fragmentation 🌵

My car is, to put it politely, in pretty bad shape, so I'm finding myself in need of some money to get back on track.

So! Commissions are WIDE OPEN - You come to me with your idea and budget, and I will make it work!

My wool-felted scene: two male purple-crowned wrens having some beef.. a moment of avian drama on a branch. A territorial dispute over a female, perhaps?🤔

Just posed on my Patreon. I post every Monday with a recap of my art and little stories about what’s going on with me. I use any money I raise to pay for food for the feral cat family I care for and to buy art supplies. You can support me for the cost of a cup of coffee per month. Or visit for free!
