I will never stop working on my line of birds. But flowers are also intriguing. Here is a first in a new line of garden flowers. Firecracker Cosmos are not only satisfying to grow in the garden but fun to draw too! They add a splash of cheer to any dark corner!
Hey Vera! Thanks for dropping in! Yeah..."Mr.Anonymous" is one of my biggest supporters! My cards vary in sizes. I have a small notecard, (5.5" x 4.25"), a tall card, (birds and flowers 4" x 9.25") and another standard sized greeting card. Once the web site is up and going all sizes will be posted. I also have a few pieces on zazzle.com under the artist "sierrajansen". More is to come there as well.
I grew up in culturally diverse San Francisco Bay Area and indulged in all forms of creative venues varying from music and dance to rich visual treats at museums.
I earned a BFA in Graphic Design at CCA and relished in the fine arts and design courses offered there. I graduated just before the dawn of computer graphics applications and have always felt blessed to be one of the last students taught the disciplines of exacting, hands-on skills required of the pre-computerized field. We were trained to apply strict adherence to detail and almost Zen-like focus on precise execution. This disciplined arts oriented ideology has influenced my approach not only to what I do in the studio but to life in general.
Of course, I have learned computer graphics applications since. I would be deceiving myself if I didn’t embrace one of the most amazing and flexible tools available to the modern day artist/designer. I only hope my work reflects that of carefully thought out artistry and evokes sentiments of beauty and balance as good design is meant to do. Hopefully my passion for thought provoking art coupled with love of the outdoors brings you visual contentment and joy.

Hi Kay! Thanks for stopping by! You are so lucky Ike didn't pay you a visit. We've been bailing buckets up here in the Windy City!
