I've been so preoccupied updating websites and mailings, business cards and new art, that I haven't kept up my posts.  Here's the final product of that last post.  I'll share the in-betweens as soon as I have a chance.  Thanks for visiting!

Curious look at a springtime baby. Keeping greener days in mind.

Highlights for Children illustrators weekend. Walk in the woods at founder's homestead.

Recently attended the illustrator's party at Highlights for Children in Honesdale, PA.  Though I have some great photos of my fellow illustrators, I'm posting a few pic's from the walk I took through the wooded area of the property.  Just teeming with life and death.

Good news!  My book "Sheila Says We're Weird" has just won a Skipping Stones Honor Award from Skipping Stones Magazine, a multicultural publication for children.  This is it's second award.  I'm so proud that the book is doing so well, which is mostly due to the wonderful author, Ruth Ann Smalley and our publisher, Tilbury House, Publishers.  Congratulations and thank you to everyone that worked on the project!

Every spring my tricolor border collie turns completely brown down in the swampy waters that feed into the Mississippi.  Happy feet!
