My New Book

My new book!
Farmers' Market Day
-published by Tiger Tales Publishers.

Found hanging out at Target with some of my other favorite children's book characters.
Yay!

This part of creating
art for children's books never gets old.

This is author Shanda Trents's first picture book. I am happy to bring her words to life!

The book is a choose-your-own-ending story that teaches girls good choices about friendship and the acceptance of others.
It's a tough world for kids...every little bit helps!

Foggy Morning

Today was a
Fog Day!
In Ohio when we have warm days in the winter we often get school delays for fog the next morning.

The fields were snug under their own blankets.





There is no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.
