After such a difficult time dealing with recent copyright infringement issues, making heart-shaped ornaments ahead of this year's Christmas season has been an enjoyable and uplifting task. This year I'm applying a thick, glossy coat of resin to each one to add extra shine and protection when hung on display. The downside is that it takes at least 24 hours to dry, so it's time-consuming but absolutely worth it. Gold leaf and glitter makes for an especially striking effect under resin!

Images of some of my paintings are being used on products like embroidery kits that are being sold on websites such as eBay. I'm currently trying to report some of the illegal use of these images to eBay and Alibaba.
