This is the bookplate for the first book in my series Marina and the Fairies. I hope to finish illustration what I've written so far by 2030. Wish me luck and fortitude! #fantasy #fairy #kidlitart #chapterbook #marinaandthefairies #fairytale #NESCBWI #blackcat

Gomez's person sent me a photo of him with the gourd I painted for him. She specified what shape of gourd she wanted for the portrait and luckily I happened to still have one. Gomez's favorite toy is a stuffed banjo so she wanted that included. #gourdart #cats #calicocat #catart #leominsterma

I deactivated my Twitter account, so it will be erased in 30 days. It was disheartening to wipe out years of sharing paintings and illustrations (and cat photos). But onward! Here's my favorite watercolor of Tickles, who was my painting companion. #blackcat #watercolor #DanielSmith #catpaintings

I'm taking three of my 5" x 7" paintings to Lunenburg Public Library's annual Small Works Art Show today. This is a closeup of my favorite of them, a pastel painting of my hen Vlad.
