You can even take a virtual peek inside.

Elsewhere

My parents have happily escaped and are camping for several days in the lovely wilderness.

Hooray for warm campfires, cold rivers and bright starry skies!

A Night On the Town

Enjoy some live music at the American Greetings Spring Fine Art + Design Show at Spaces this Friday the 16th 6-9PM! The Moises Borges Trio and Kenny Davis will be performing at the opening reception.

See you there!

The exhibition will run through May 2nd.

A Treat for the Ol' Eyespheres

  Thanks to Dante Terzigni for this fantastic poster design.

Jordana

Really missing my cousin this year.

Wish you were here with us, Jody.

Spring Showers & Celebrations

Here are a couple of my American Greetings laser die-cut cards available in Target, just in time for all those Bridal Showers and Engagement Parties you'll be invited to this Spring! This image doesn't do them justice - the details are sooo delicate.

The design process for these cards was tricky. While keeping the design dainty and intricate, I also had to consider how each little branch and blossom would connect to maintain some stability in the cut paper. I'm pretty thrilled about how they turned out! They're much more enjoyable in real life.

Easter Grass

Have a happy weekend, friends!

Looking Forward

If all goes well, our weather this Friday should provide us with a lovely, sunny, near-eighty day. Hooray!

Chirrup!

Little round birds are happily tweeting outside my window.

Happy Abbreviated-Work-Week to me!

Little Homes

Six small pieces accepted into the American Greetings Spring Fine Arts Show opening in April at Spaces. Ink on acetate over acrylic and paper collage. Yay!

Just for Mom

Here are a few pages from a cute little hardback Mother's Day booklet I illustrated for American Greetings. It includes blank spaces for the giver to write his or her own messages and even some photo corners to hold a picture. Printed on sustainably sourced paper - woo!
