The journey of Tiny Candle began with sketches that grew into something more. Grateful to celebrate the art of illustration today. #nationalillustrationday #childrensbooks #picturedaypress #christmasstorybook

I had a great 2023. Finally visited a great pal in Portland, OR. Illustrated my second children’s book. Found out I will be a father too!
Cheers to a healthy and creative 2024.
My motto? Dodge the scare tactics! Create, create, create! Travel some too :)
