    Custom Playing Cards Illustration – Valentine’s Day Edition

    I had the best time making Valentine’s Day cards for my family this year! Trying to come up with ideas recently, I started thinking of what I could draw as a greeting card for each individual family member. Which led me to thinking about how full and crazy and amazing our life is right now.…

    Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (insert whistling)

    Isn’t it funny how certain phrases will trigger entire songs in your brain for hours on end? The phrase “Always look on the bright side of life” will have me humming the song from Life of Brian for hours after I hear it. My mind will helpfully insert footage from the old Monty Python film…

  • Updating the Online Illustration Portfolio

    This evening, I tackled updating my online illustration portfolio – it’s the section of my portfolio that’s the biggest and beefiest, because I. Love. To. Draw. I just kept finding all of these hidden drawing gems – old projects for apparel clients like Kohl’s, doodles in the sketchbook that make me super happy, painting commissions… And I…

  • Rose Drawing from Valentines Flowers

    This lovely bouquet was courtesy of the folks at The Bouqs. All opinions are my own. I told you I’ve been working on a sketchbook challenge this year. So far, I’ve been drawing whatever comes to mind as I sit on the couch unwinding at the end of the day. Lots of paisley patterns pour…

  • My 2015 Sketchbook Project

    With ditching my Candy Crush app earlier this year, I wanted to do something really productive with the free time I was getting back.

    Always be Joyful – Bible Verses for Kids Free Coloring Sheets

    With Joy being so very attached to her muhmuh’s hip, it’s totally taken me out of commission in helping out at Living Faith Church in ways I used to before she was born. I used to spend some Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings in the nursery… which can’t really happen when there’s a baby on…

  • There’s a Spider in My House and He’s Gonna Kill Me

    For the last few weeks, every now and then I’ve seen this HUGE spider hanging out on our living room window. I mean, the sucker was big. With legs included, he was the size of the palm of my hand. I wasn’t all that afraid of him, because he was outside. Or so I thought.…
