Welcome to my world of sock monkeys, leopard geckos, and nature photography! Almost all of my adventures and photographs are taken in the Las Vegas area and show another side of Sin City and my home away from home, Springs Preserve. I hope to grow and learn more about the art of nature photography so that I may continue to explore greater depths of technical expertise and imagery. Thanks for stopping by!

Euen
Euen was made from a pair of sturdy, but plain moss green socks and looked a tad bit dull. I went to the fabric store and purchased a bit of pretty blue, plaid flannel and made him this nifty vest and cap. He looks quite dapper now!

Mikey Dread
This is a Rasta style sock monkey done on request for a lovely customer of mine. I call him Mikey Dread after a favorite reggae artist of mine. The real Mikey Dread sported an awesome beard, but my Mikey is clean shaven. Perhaps I should look into to making bearded sock monkeys...

Candy Stripers
Who says horizontal stripes make you look fat?
I made these two as a gift for my friend's children in England. I love when my monkeys get to travel!

Simian Alien
Alien monkey experiment. After making monkey and alien plushies, this was really the only logical choice.

Aloysius
Aloysius is a little bear I made from some very soft brown fabric I scavenged from the remnants bin. He did not turn out exactly how I had planned and came out with a koala-like look. Still, he is cute in his way and not a little nefarious.
The three bears I have made do not have movable joints, but I am looking into the parts and mechanics of making some with that ability in the future. I have so much to learn yet.
