Oldie but Goodie

Last year we worked on a fun collaboration painting commission for James which is an amazing restaurant in the Bella Vista neighborhood of Philadelphia. We've been meaning to put these pic's up on our website for awhile now but haven't yet gotten around to it, so I figured this might be a good place to start.

Matt and Wes stretching the canvas.


Here we have Matt painting away...just in case you're wondering, he does the more realistic glazed sections and I do the others. And yeah, I know, my studio is messy.

Hanging the painting.

...and last but not least, we reward ourselves with a tasty meal from the restaurant. So good.

Snow Day


Who doesn't love a snow day? Here's a pic from my studio window and also one of Juniper getting ready for a walk. We didn't get a lot of snow...not like the snow I grew up with in MN, but it's still enough to celebrate with hot chocolate.

New Art

Dave and Joyce (the fantastic designers/illustrators at Spur ) sent this amazing baby gift for Juniper, we can't wait to find the perfect spot to hang it. Thanks Dave and Joyce, you guys are the best!
