I am currently on maternity leave until further notice but am still checking my email so I may be slow in responding to your emails but will answer any mails sent. I am holding off on scheduling commissions until things settle with the new baby but feel free to check with me in a month or two to see if I am putting work on the schedule again. The prints page is back up again too. Thank you for all your support this past year making it one of the best yet. I look forward to getting back to working again soon!

Hey you can now get my artwork in your SIMS game! Check out the press release from CILM below for details on how!

CILM announces a new website that offers legal image licensing to Sims Gamers

Creative Image Licensing and Management (CILM) announces that they have now made it possible for Sims Gamers to legally purchase the usage of artists' digital images. The web site, CILM Sim Nation (www.cilmsimsnation.com), offers artist tube and image packages for custom content makers to use in their Sims games. Some of those artists include: Anthony Guerra, Olivia, Joel Adams, Jennifer Janesko, Matt Busch, Ted Hammond, Mark Wasyl and many more with more added to the web site frequently. The art available can be used to make clothing for your Sims and furnishings, wall paper, floors and paintings for your Sim's homes. Even the smallest Sims house can look high dollar with an Olivia painting on the wall!

CILM Sims Nation makes it easy to purchase art for your content by using an easy-to-use web site interface with a FAQ's section, different ordering options, and legal licensing that allows you to create and share your Sims custom content creations with those gamers that love your creations. Artist packages, at CILM Sims Nation, are clearly visible and contain images as the artists created them and the same image professionally tubed for ease of use. Also, you can show off your content making ability by entering special content contests. If you love making content you can also get information about being a custom content maker for CILM Sims Nation. You can check out how at http://www.cilmsimsnation.com . CILM Sims Nation is sure to make your Sims the envy of the community!

Hey, I finally got myself a MySpace page...300 years after everyone else of course! ;-) Anywho, stop by and say hi and check out more personal pictures if you like!

So, how cool is this!? Here is my 'Eightball' painting up on the side of a Navy helicopter! I did some revisions to the original for their unit and am proud to be flying along side them as they bust drug dealers trying to enter the country via boat down south. Keep up the great work boys!

2008 Calendars are now available for sale at my Cafepress store so stop by and grab one so you won't be without your pin-ups next year!

Check out my PRINTS page for new prints available and new sizes. For most of my prints I now offer 3 sizes to fit your budget, 8x10, 11x14 & 13x19. Prices start as low as $25 and all are signed and dated on a beautiful Archival heavy weight matte paper.

Thank you to everyone who has hung in there with me through this transition time. I have sincerely appreciated hearing from all of you and for your loyalty and support over the years. With your help, I have finally found a company to help me better manage use of my images. I'm excited to announce that I have signed with the kind and helpful folks over at Creative Image Licensing (CILM)! I have received a lot of feedback and ideas from you all and CILM was the overwhelming recommendation so I am confident that I have made a choice that will be good for all of us. It is very important to me that you all receive the best possible treatment and Anthony and Michelle at CILM offer excellent customer service, a simple, easy to use website and excellent tubes with quick turn around time when receiving your orders. They will also be helping me track and confront violators which is an invaluable service to me and those of you who are supporting my artwork by purchasing packages.

I understand that not everyone will be able to buy licenses and I'm sorry that this has to effect you but I thank you for your support over the last 5 years that I have allowed free usage and hope that you will still stop by often to see what's new. Thanks everyone!
