I have a new book out! This one is titled Sybil’s Magic Muffins written by Sara Holst. It’s about a little girl who cooks her emotions into her recipes. This was a lot of fun because I got to illustrate food as well as a ton of different emotions. #kidlit #kidlitart #kidsbooks #picturebooks

The two books I’m currently working on are very character driven so I figured I’d share a little character sheet from a past book, Bernadette. I love working with authors and helping to bring their characters come to life! #characterdesign #kidlitart #kidlit #picturebookillustration #childrensbook

I saw this prompt to illustrate a quote by Lilla Rogers for the quarterly @makeartthatsells.bsky.social challenge and was inspired to give it a go. I had so much fun with us! 🥰 #MATSArtchallenge8 #makeartthatsells #kidlitart #picturebookart #childrensbooks #illustratedquote #handlettering

Exploring ways to look less 'commercial' as this is the most repeated input I get from portfolio reviews. I wondered if I could bring my style and love of colored pencil to the tablet... would take forever to do a kid book this way, but I sure enjoyed working on this! #kidlitart #illustration

I just completed another project with the fabulous Dr. Kimberly P. Johnson! An educational workbook. Love the subtitle, Four Letter Words My teacher Lets Me Say! I illustrated black and white line art and color cover, as well as all graphic design. #kidlit #educational #illustration #kidlitart

Hope everyone has a lovely long weekend! Here is a new personal piece, it is a redraw of an older illustration. Playing around with more textures - baby steps but getting there! #addKidLitArt #kidlitart #picturebooks #childrensbooks #illustration #characterdesign

This is what I wrote when I was 10 years old. (Cursive writing!) Hoping to be a famous artist! Not sure about the famous part, but I wish I could tell her I’d get to draw every day. The second is drawing of my brother‘s bear. #kidlitartist #illustration #picturebook #childrensbookillustrator #kidlit
