Flora de Vida

I have always been drawn to the pattern of the flower of life which is a symbol of sacred geometry. This symbol has been found in temples, art, and manuscripts of cultures from around the world. These designs were drawn onto linoleum blocks and then carved out to create a block print. In this series all of these designs are block printed onto paper.

Pakistani Truck Art

My good friend Becky who owns the fabulous Random tea room in northern liberties where you can get the best homemade chai in Philly http://www.therandomtearoom.com/home.html
recently turned me on to the amazing designs and inspiring paintings of these Pakistani trucks. I would love to see something like this while driving down the highway:) To check out more of these photos visit this website http://web.mac.com/mikespix/iWeb/Site/Pakistani%20Truck%20Art.html

Island Inspiration

This brightly floral textile, the mayan bag and the green man tanks were inspired by my travels to Mexico. These designs are hand silk screened on cotton. The t-shirt designs are a part of my green man series and are also inspired by traveling and nature.

Vintage inspired Prints

I love taking inspiration from vintage clothes since thrift shopping is one of my favorite things to do. You never know what you will find while thrifting. I picked up a few nice pieces at the garment district while I was up in Cambridge. I try to hit up the thrift stores everywhere I travel. Will be posting some of my vintage finds soon. Hope you enjoy these in the mean time!!!!!!
