I teach catch and release fly-fishing to
children and thought how fun to bring
out a Tom Cat to illustrate the
fundamentals in the moonlight.

I have always admired yaks and am a
kayaker, so it was a fun combination of the
two! I love the bold colors.

Mimi's thoughts ~
This one was inspired by my sister and her
enthusiasm over yoga. I drew this one for
cheer and laughs. I love this cat because
he's trying so earnestly. It worked - my
sister laughed!

Crowbar

original SOLD

available as note cards or prints

Mimi's thoughts ~
This pastel is the first in a series of
humorous new bike and sports art.
Portland is the mecca for bike enthusiasts
and I loved being able to combine the
quintessential mode of transportation with
some smart (and silly) partying birds ;-D !

original SOLD
image #108
available as note cards or prints

Mimi's thoughts ~
When I drew this I laughed. I can just
hear this motivated sockeye pedalling
along,"eeek, eeek," by the light of the
moon. I love the glow of our moonlit
Pacific Northwest forests and think this
salmon has a magical night to pedal
up-stream.

I'm pleased to have such a bold
and plucky set of chicks
representing strong and funny,
female athletes.

Mimi's thoughts ~
I drew inspiration for this from a
recent fishing trip with friends in the
mountains of Oregon. Click here to
read my article written for an online
fly fishing website called,
Sexyloops.com.

Mimi's thoughts ~
This was done as an illustration for a
humorous article in the Summer Edition of
Outside Bozeman magazine, 2008. I
enjoyed drawing my kayaker dropping into
the abyss.
