New Year, New Pau!

January 4, 2016

The year 2015 had lessons to learn – and 2016 is about getting back on track.

I’m looking forward to the future with open eyes and an open heart . I’ve moved into a new home, with new resolutions, ready to take on anything! Every day is another opportunity to push yourself – to become a better you.

The past month I’ve had some time to make more sketches… and started a book club with 3 girlfriends. All from the Valley, we love to read and started the club off with Brooklyn by Colm Toibin. I just finished I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou and thought it’d be cool to draw just her eyes because she was a woman with so much soul..

I drew Steve Harvey after his hilarious fail on National television. His face is too good not to draw!

Amy Winehouse sketch

Malala is still a work in progress….

This sketch is part of a series I’m creating…

I’ll keep posting new work since one of my resolutions is to keep this blog updated with new work, artists who inspire me, trips I take, and Beauty/Fashion ideas I can’t help but share. Thanks for checking out my blog and come back tomorrow for Makeup Monday!

2016 Reminders:

Pay it forward.
You get what you give.
Work on your craft everyday.
Keep organized and throw out the junk.
Stay humble.
Try new things.
Stay true to yourself.
Keep a strong relationship with God.
Do more, say less.
Forgive but don’t forget.
Take care of the temple you call your body!

Also, it’s my birthday month! I’m embracing 29 with a kick-ass attitude.

The year of PAU.

Stuff & Stuff Podcast

September 18, 2015

My friend Jonathan Latt wrote his first book The Geek, and asked me to paint the cover for it! He directed me to make a hand-drawn map of the World, with Dungeons/Dragons dice thrown across it, and the protagonist’s favorite killing knife set in a bird’s eye view.

He had me as a guest on his new podcast called Stuff & Stuff – an hour conversation with a person of his choice to talk about “stuff”.

Check it out in the link below!

Art Show in New York

October 29, 2014

Day 1: Airport selfie after zero hours of sleep, super excited to get out of LA!

Natasha’s home was super cute and decorated just the way I’d expect her to : punchy colors with interesting antiques..

cutesy patterns to show off a bit of her girly side. Loved it.

PAU Pop-Up Shop

August 20, 2014

Yesterday I was thinking about what my mom said, that ” People start off selling their products right out of their car” — it didn’t occur to me right away that this actually would be a good idea for myself, but I tried it Downtown in the Arts District – and it was a success! People were totally into it, sold some shirts, and even met some other cool artists. My kind of Day Job!
