The Golden Moth Illumination Deck
February 9th, 2012
IT'S HERE! a very special project that I am excited to tell you about. For almost 3 years, I have been giving readings to people (similar to tarot) with a deck of symbolic cards that I illustrated. I am now launching a Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds to get my card deck printed and available for anyone to use!
You can find out about the project here by watching a video, reading more about it, and deciding if you want to pledge a donation! There are all kinds of neat rewards at different pledge amounts, so check it out. YEAH!!!

About Me
I am an artist, writer, and printmaker who is fascinated by the intersection of visual art and language. I like to write and illustrate poems, and make prints, drawings, and crafts. I don’t practice a distinction between “fine art” and “craft.” For me, art should be an everyday thing – from illustrations in books, to the painting hanging in your kitchen, to the exhibit at the museum, and wherever you can find it in-between. I received my BFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, majoring in Fine Arts/Printmaking. As a printmaker, I am drawn to the challenges and surprises inherent in the form: planning each layer of the image; carving, scratching, and building up the printmaking plate; and finally inking and pulling the print. My inspirations include nature, my garden, paper crafts, toys, comics, and children's books. Some of my favorite artists and illustrators are Gustav Baumann, Edward Gorey, Peter Sis, Tove Jansson, Arnold Lobel, and Beni Montresor. I currently live in Richmond, Virginia.
Check out my fruit and veggie paintings at Harrison Street Coffee Shop in Richmond, VA - on permanent display!
An animation I made last year: "Housefire."
