Hello there! It’s been awhile since I’ve even thought about posting, but I have some news! I’ve started my second calendar for 2019 (I...

I’ve not made time for a lot of reading lately, but I’ve always loved books and libraries. (Speaking of, who goes to the actual library...

Here’s a few recent sketches from my sketchbook. I’ve been working on my calendar (which hopefully will come out in late October) and...

Hey! I’ve been busy filling up pages in my sketchbook and I thought I’d share a few here. First things first. Here is the cover: I...

Here’s an update on illustrations I’m working on for the 2019 calendar! I am having so much fun with it! It’s pretty slow going, but I’m...

This piece is for a friend of mine–it might have the honor of appearing on her desk at work! I noticed the style of this illustration is...

We used to have a honeysuckle plant climbing up a trellis at our old farmhouse…when it bloomed it gave off the loveliest scent ever!...
