We are sad to say that today Molly Paws left us to go play on the Rainbow Bridge with her sisters Harley, Gracie, Miss Mia, and her beloved Zozo.She was a sweet girl who loved her evening chippie (treat), our real-life Papa Paws adventures to get pizza or get a curbside pickup, and walkies.

Happy Book Birthday to Brave Little Gracie! I can't believe it's been almost 10 years since she passed to the Rainbow Bridge and I first had the notion to tell her story.

Rounding out my self-taught #kawaii illustration with girl in a kimono and a painter. Thank you, Ilaria Ranaruo for making your awesome book, Kawaii Cuties! It's been a great help for me to learn the style better.
