My latest design, listed on Etsy tonight. A good reminder for my teen girl. And for me. ;P

Sunrise, Sunset

December 9, 2014 by riasharon

… and swiftly flow the years…

The days are long but the years are fast. And this girl just had her bat mitzvah this weekend. Whut?! There are no words that can capture the fullness of my heart so I’m just going to stop here.

Sick-O

November 15, 2005 by riasharon

Poor guy has been sick. As much as I hate seeing him in such a sad state, he’s so adorable and especially snuggly when he’s not feeling well. I can barely stand it. I know he won’t always fit so snugly in this bean bag, nor will his feet be so small. I want to remember him like this.

And oh, isn’t gouache so much fun?

Wild and Precious

A little about me

By day, I work in higher ed and in my free time I make art, read great books, walk around with my crazy dog, and play chauffeur to a couple of not-so-littles.

I teach classes on creativity and inspiration on Skillshare. My art is available for sale in the form of printables on Etsy and fine art on Minted. I also love painting puppy portraits.
