YOU'VE GOT IT BAD GIRL

One solid season of commissions

The studio walls have been vibrating with the births of new projects this entire Spring. I've been one hell of a busy maker, spending most days knee deep in paintings and beards made for beloved friends. All three of these pieces now live on their new walls in San Francisco, Arcata and San Diego.
