Blue Jay Feathers
I love blue jay feathers! I collect them. They’re so shimmery. I know that some people think blue jays are a nuisance, but not in my book. One day when I was walking home from the bus stop I saw a fledgling bouncing on the side of the road, trying to fly. I walked towards it and,…

The Pirate Banner
I painted this Pirate Banner for Peter Pan at the Seacoast Repertory Theatre in 2005. Loved this production. The original design had a cigarette held between the teeth but the director nixed it. Not a good example for the kids, I guess. I would’ve added to the badness look, but I still love it. One…
