Coming up on December 6th, Orange Spot Coffee will be hosting an art show for my new series, Ink from the Cutting Room Floor. I am excited to be there again and love getting people’s initial reactions to a new series. It is always interesting which pieces seem to impact the most people and how …
December 1st is finally here and my latest children’s book, You’re Weird. I Like You. is officially launched! This is honestly my biggest heart project to date.

So – 2020 was a real b*tch for most of us. I’ve struggled, I’ve been okay, and for many days I haven’t been okay. When lockdown first happened, I said to myself, “I’ve been working from home for a decade! I got this!” But this was no normal “work from home situation!” We couldn’t see friends. We couldn’t …
My newest series, “Positivity, with a Side of Snark” is very close to my heart. For the last few years, I’ve illustrated a lot of children’s books and kid-themed art. While I love that kind of work, this series was a chance to return to my roots – using the f-word in my art. Generally, …

Hello all and pardon my blog absence since the new year…holidays and honeymoons and catching-up-from-those-things, oh my! As I have posted before, I have been loving some of the sweet and interesting children’s books that have come my way for illustration.

If you already follow me on social media then you have probably seen my collaborations with young artists through the Monster Project. I heart the Monster Project….like, a lot. I often feel like I understand the mind of a young artist over the minds of most adults. And, as I have mentioned several times before, …
