Just one of the fun pages I made for my book Leo Takes A Bath. 🧼 I illustrated SPLASH as fun looking sponge letters for some good clean fun during Leo's bath time.

#artvsartist I didn't forget about you. Just trying to get things in order for the New Year.

I'm happy this year came with new challenges and surprises both for my career and my day to day life. I've been creating more of my own stories and it makes me eager to start pitching.

Happy clickable-hashtag #KidLitArtPostcard day! This one's a #KidLitArtRepostcard (thanks to @ginaperry.bsky.social for the idea!)

I write and illustrate picture books both silly and serious. I'm seeking representation—and signs of spring.
