Trying to start drawing more lil scenes, and having a lot of fun doing it! Favorite bits of this one include: the kid’s wittle face, the rug tassels, a bright blue armchair, and that internal book design lol jk on that last one🤣🤠 #kidsillustration #childrenillustration #kidslibrary

Since I got a stand mixer as a wedding gift, our neighbors got a lot of holiday goodies! 🎄🤶🏻✨ It was so nice to get back into baking! And Carson gets credited bc of all his help washing dishes, and putting Rolos on pretzels 🤣🤣🤣

I bake a lot for the holidays & I then run out of time to do Christmas-y art! So here’s an elf holding potentially Santa’s head??? that i drew in 2022! or maybe she’s just giving that speech from Othello or Hamlet or whatever. Who’s to say?!!?!?! I obviously know my Shakespeare very well 😂

My sweet wonderful sunshine husband was playing Stardew Valley, and when I asked him what that sound was I’m still 98.9% sure he said “I’m harvesting my crocs!” And so this illustration was born, thanks for coming along for the journey lol 😅🤣

I’m doing my very bestest to keep my whimsy, curiosity, and wonder afloat in a chaotic country/world—and art always helps. Here’s hoping that changes are good & soon! 🖤
