As a former art teacher, I've always loved creating and sharing that excitement with others. I left teaching when I became a mom, but I continue to work in illustration and design, and to share ideas, tips, and techniques online. Being a mom informs every part of my life, but especially my illustrations because I am inspired by the creative quirkiness and brilliance of children. I also love chai tea, ginger snaps, and listening to BBC radio. Thanks so much for stopping by!
