Art of the Garden

I haven't been posting anything because I was thinking this site was only for my fine art, well I do art as a job sometimes too! It's a site for all my art.
I've been doing photography for a new company called Art of the Garden, LLC. Their product is called "The M Brace" and it's a steel corner used for making raised garden beds for flowers, vegetables, plants etc. They use recycled metal, all made in u.s.a., and they've been featured in Sunset magazine (my name mentioned as the photo credit! click here to see the article in sunset magazine) as well as others such as Great Backyards, Hobby Farm Home, The San Francisco Chronicle and The Los Angeles Times. All but a handfull are my photography work, and their main photograph seen everywhere is done by yours truly.
You can see their website at artofthegarden.net and be sure to check out their press page (click here) where the articles are listed.

Christmas Gift

I made this set of postcards for a best friend of mine. She studied birds and graduated on December 12th. She's awesome.
So, I thought she could appreciate these. Each one has the common and scientific name and inside there are field descriptions of the bird's appearance. Enjoy.

How I See Things

I decided to post some pictures I've taken recently for inspiration. I haven't been doing any drawing for myself recently, but I do take pictures. I might as well show you the everyday beauties.

Completed 9/6/9

New Work 9/14/9

Info

Two of my pieces will be in a show this October called Art Farm. It's a show of work inspired by farms in Yolo County. Hopefully you can come see it and I'll make sure to post more information about it when it gets closer.

Logo Designs

These were designed earlier this year for a farm in Hawaii where I volunteered.
I created these with very limited tools going back and forth between Microsoft Word and Paint! Would have been different if I'd had photoshop, but because of the limited tools it completely changed my thought process of things I could do. I LOVED it when something I didn't expect happened and made it look SO much better than what I was trying to do. So, it was very spontaneous designing these.
