Silhouette portraits are symbolic of family, celebration and an era of elegance, and simpler times

At first you may find this not much different than most blogs. But if you read on, you will join me on my journey which includes my family, places I visit, and people I meet. I am very grateful to share my art and consider it an honor to give something to people who have never seen how a silhouette is created or even had their silhouette done before. I love hearing the stories of those who may have posed for a silhouette years ago, at their elementary school, fair, or an amusement park. Some have shared, they still have their silhouette framed and hanging on their wall at home or their mom's wall. Others say it's in a scrapbook or put away in a box. What amazes me, is these stories always come from a good place and people cherish them and hold on to them for many years.
Silhouette art is unique and fun.

Changed my Header

For some reason or another my other header picture didn't work anymore. So I changed it to this newer one. It is a silhouette I did of a couple who are going to be married this summer in La Jolla, CA. They put their silhouettes I cut out on their wedding invitations. I am pleased and honored at the same time. My work is on their wedding invitation. And for as long as I have been doing silhouettes for people this is still an honor and privilege. I don't take this lightly as this is a lasting memory. At the same time I am thankful, to my bride and groom. Thank you for appreciating my work. Your wedding invitation is amazing.
