Hats off to the 2026 grads!

This art was for a greeting card which has a special significance to me. My son graduated high school earlier this week! I designed this card with him in mind & heart. Like many Gen Z’s he’s private (which I think is so healthy) so I won’t share a bunch of photos of him in a variety of hats. BUT, I will say, I’m proud of him for trying on an array of options to find the right fit. Here’s to new beginnings & a bunch of new situations to figure out what suits you best.

I can't wait to see what you'll wear next!

Happy Mother's Day

 

I'm not saying all the time, but let's admit it.... most of the time.

(This are was a card for Design House Greetings, sold in Trader Joe's.)

*This book came at a personally special time for me. My husband, originally from Chile became an America citizen last spring. When I was writing this book we were studying our American civics together. Me, to bring this book to life & Antonio to take his U.S. civics test.  I dedicate this to him and all the new American citizens. Welcome! 🇺🇸

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Earth Day! 💙

 

Happy Earth Day! I recently visited a local school in the K.C. area to read Hello, World! Garden Time, which is a great spring, read. 📖 🌱 I love having the opportunity to not only write and illustrate books but to share them in person with little learners. I think we all walked away with a greener thumb!

(If you're interested there is a variety of Hello, World!coloring pages available to download on my website.)
