I’ve totally been on a creative high lately. It’s been awesome–I’ve been designing decals, and writing a children’s book series, and making comics–its been a blast! I’m riding out my creative high as long as it lasts, but I decided after too many days with blood-shot eyes, I need a creative outlet that isn’t on a computer!

After going to a music festival and seeing all sorts of up cycled art, I challenged myself to come up with a non-computer project where I wouldn’t have to buy anything. I concluded to making wood-disc ornaments out of a dead apricot tree branch and a bunch of unused oil paints I have sitting in a closet.

I have painted Starry Night a few times in my life–and well, it’s just fun to paint! So this time I decided to do my own “New Mexico” version of Starry Night.
