Note to self for my sanity: I don't need to know everything that's going on in the United States. Let it go.

I just read Phoebe Wahl's Blue House and it was so real. The feeling of loving a home and losing a home for whatever reason. I have called several places home in my life and every time you move there is this sadness, the memories that are specific to this place. I still dream of my childhood house.

A friend pointed out a mistake in one of my published illustration and now that's all I can think about. 🫠

It’s #kidlitartpostcard day!

Here is a character study based on my friend’s daughter.

I am open to more opportunities to work on chapter books, picture books, puzzle activity pages and board books!

Much appreciation to the Maryland Library Association and Blue Crab Young Readers Award committee for selecting RACHEL FRIEDMAN BREAKS THE RULES as an Honor title for Transitional Titles!

Thanks to Rachel's brilliant illustrator @genevievekote.bsky.social for making the books what they are.

I love Severance and I know it's the better show but somehow I can't stop thinking about the White Lotus characters.

So I don't know who made a post recently about making congee as a comfort food. But I made some last night and boy! So good! Will go straight to my safe food list.

If you're not watching the Great Pottery Throw Down you are missing out on the nicest balm for the heart. This show makes me so happy and renews my love for humanity. ♥️

And it's not just about the tariffs. As a Canadian let me tell you, hearing your president shouting over and over that he wants to annex Canada is so insulting!

Canadian friends let's boycott all the billionaires who were at the orange villain inauguration. Boycott X, Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, Disney, Apple, Google, Spotify, all the AI tech. This is economic war. We are done being nice. 😡🇨🇦

Reading @cabfolio.com Cabtualités this morning with my coffee. Always a delight.

My favorite Rikishi, Hoshoryu won the January sumo championship with a three way playoff! In the interview afterwards he said that he was thinking too much when training and then his coach said "Just enjoy sumo". I'm gonna take this in my art practice. Stop thinking, doubting, just enjoy art making.

I'm so angry and anxious this week. No we are not overreacting.

So 3 year after my lasik operation one of my eye is now at -1. Considering getting it re-operated but I am scared. Contrary to what people say it was painful! Ordered some cheap glasses in the meantime.

The next Rachel Friedman book I illustrated is in there. Publishing February 11! :)

Cover illustration for Dollars to Doughnuts Book 1: Birthday Bling! Written by Catherine R. Daly and illustrated by me for Kane Press.

It's a series teaching economic literacy for kids. In this book Lucy and Julian learn about the difference between gift cards, credit and debit cards. #kidlit

Finished in one quick sitting and enjoyed every minute. It reminded me of how I felt about rules and church as a kid. Rachel learns a valuable lesson because of constantly breaking the rules #BookPosse @sarahkapit.bsky.social @genevievekote.bsky.social

My #artvsartist 2024!

Last year I illustrated books for two lovely series, the Dollars To Doughnuts series and Rachel Friedman and started working on a new one this Fall but I can't show anything yet! It has dogs and family dynamics that's all I'm gonna say. :)
