My favorite patron (my wife) requested a painting and arrows for the patio. She thinks that it makes the painted white wall (previously the garage wall) look more purposeful. We plan to spend a lot of time here this summer.

Another little side project. Customized Dungeon & Dragons dice or miniatures cases. These can hold 20+ dice or 12+ miniatures. I used old D&D comics for the art on the cover and inside.

I can make these for any game to help store and organize game pieces.

A small restoration project. I found this old clock box and knew I needed to give it new life. All it took was adding a small ring inside the old mounting hole and getting a new clock insert. I held the ring in place with a rubber band instead of glue so I didn't permanently change the old clock. Now to sell it or keep it?

If you're ever having a bad day, just watch an episode of The Joy of Painting. By the end you will have a painting and be a little bit wiser.

My newest art adventure.....string art!
This took many hours but has been on my wife's wish list for awhile now. I'm looking at using this same technique on some of the boards that have a lot of character. Let me know if you are looking to bring a piece of string art into your home.
