GUITAR ART Recently, I learned how to use automotive paint. I painted my scooter. I made a few technical mistakes on it, but nobody knows what they are except me and someone looking at it super-close. Here’s my scooter all pretty blue now instead of ugly grey.

CHALKING UP AZ! I’m putting these events in chronological order, the most recent ones first.

So the marks are put around the words “tile work” because this is 100% paint. Not real tile. Several years ago I worked in a set dept. that did all kinds of sets for plays, movies, events and industries. The joke when i worked there was the bossman would hand us a piece of wood…

AVEDA MURAL This mural is a relatively small mural, done in the massage/therapy room of the Prescott AZ Aveda salon.

Y This is one part of a wall of 3 for a small mural I did for a women’s/children’s homeless shelter clinic for Phoenix Children’s Hospital. I love those guys because they saved the life not once but twice of my husband’s sweet son Scott. Our family will always be grateful to them for what…
