Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! I have chocolate Easter bunnies on the brain so please enjoy this wee bunny holding a bouquet of tulips & asparagus! I love drawing animals & have drawn mostly for the children’s market, but in the past I worked in animated cartoons, comics & textile design in NYC!

An illustration of a family (mother, father and son), standing in front of a garden and further beyond that, houses and a city skyline. A handcarved wooden sign overhead reads "Community Garden".There are two birds perched on the posts of the sign looking down. The mother has a potted plant, The Dad has a shovel.The boy has a garden hose and is spraying a bit onto the top of his head.

It’s #KidLitArtPostcard Day! I’m a published illustrator looking for picture books, MG, chapter books, novels, readers, and representation. The environment, animals, and nature are my favorite themes. This art was the cover of a book for Pearson. #kidlitart #kidlitartist #childrensbookillustration

I almost missed #KidLitArtPostcard Day! I'm currently working on picture books. I’ll be available around the end of the month. Also interested in MG, chapterbooks, novels, board books and readers, and representation. These kids were on a cover of a school music book. #kidlitart #kidlitartist
