I typically use a mix of gouache, cut paper, pencil, ink, watercolor, and colored pencil depending on my mood and what I want to draw. Exploring different mediums is so much fun to me. I like to try new techniques, play, make random connections and get a little lost when I'm creating. My personal work has lead to so many wonderful project and awesome client relationships and I'm very grateful for this.
100 Things to Draw With a Triangle is a doodling book that loosens the imagination, and inspires creative thought. Triangles and other basic geometric shapes are at the core of art, they're the structures where form and drawing begin. I learned so much while creating this book. To create just the beginning of a piece of art and leave it unfinished for someone else to finish was harder than I thought. Mary Ann Hall and Judith Cressy were wonderful to work with and gave me a lot of guidance and support during the process.

It's been said that feeling grateful for what we have is essential for happiness. The Tiny Blessings Series was created for wee ones with this idea in mind. The stories are simple, sweet and acknowledge all the beautiful things around us that we can feel grateful for. It's helping teach mindfulness to toddlers which is pretty great.
There is currently Tiny Blessings/Bedtime and Tiny Blessings/Giving Thanks
Tiny Blessings/Mealtime and Tiny Blessings/Christmas will be available in fall 2016
