Hi everyone,
Everything is well here at the Hollow. Dot, our new dog, demands tons of time but she's a joy to have around. Usually.

Currently, I'm drawing evolving doodles a lot and wondering where that will go next. For the last year I've been drawing fantastical rooted things, but I'm being lured back into drawing realistically by Dot. She's just so darned cute that I want to draw her!

I'm very pleased to finally have a class online again. I'm proud of this class and I like the way it's presented too. For those of you who don't know, my classes take a lot of time to put together so I charge for them, but I try to set reasonable prices.
