I once was working on a fantasy book idea that I had which took place in another world. This is a character creature design of a mail carrier! Who doesn't like getting mail? And come rain or hail or sleet or... nothing's stopping this guy!

A princess character design from a fantasy story idea that I was once writing. I had a lot of fun playing with different material textures while working quickly to get the character on the page and keep it loose.

This is the character design for a guard for a fantasy story idea that I had. I liked not getting too engrossed in making it perfect and being more concerned with getting the idea out of my head. I also enjoyed putting in a little detail like the metal shading, while keeping it overall mostly loose as seen in the exploratory sketch lines that I left.

I wanted to make a picture for a friend of mine so I asked her what her favorite animal is. She said sloths! Now I know this friend is also crazy about ice cream (really, who isn't?!), so this led me to wonder what a sloth eating ice cream would look like....

I did this quick sketch of Ruby the Macaw while at the San Diego Safari Park's Hidden Jungle. She was a cool old lady that I enjoyed seeing every time I went. I didn't draw all the time there because I found people always wanted to see what I was up to and this held up the lines. But luckily, I was able to get this 1-2 minute sketch in during one of my trips at a less busy time because I never saw her on display again after that.

My husband is a librarian and I used to be one, so it's no wonder that we love libraries and reading! This charming raccoon was a part of a library bulletin board that I designed. Perfect for any librarian and book lover!

Surf in the yule tide with this cool tiki! His gift of poinsettias and jolly smile will brighten the holidays even for those getting coal this year.

I love sharks! I made this so I could get a mask in time for Shark Week! You can share this toothy smile too... of course any week is a good week for sharks in my opinion. :)

These colorful ladybugs are sure to give the bearer plenty of love. Done in markers, this watercolor look was achieved by working super quickly and overlapping the colors before they could dry. This piece was done after meeting the man that I'm now married to. <3

A friend asked me to make a picture of the family's hermit crab. So I had this idea that since their claws are lopsided, the crab should be holding a lopsided heart! <3

This is the second of my two Little Red pieces. In the original story, Red stops in a meadow to pick flowers. Please see my other Little Red Lost in the Woods piece if you're a fan of Red or the Grimm Brothers!

To fly where no bird has flown before! If you like this, be sure to let me know - I would love to create a whole Space Birds line!

This adorable fish started as a sketch and then I just had to paint it because it swam right into my heart. It's impossible for me to look at it without smiling... I hope it's the same for you!

I design the bulletin boards for the local library where my husband works. This is one of them. Before doing art full-time, back when I was a children's librarian, I would have loved this as a shirt. So here it is! Perfect for the librarians, teachers and voracious readers in your life!

Taken from my Toucan Party piece, I thought this background would make an awesome pattern all by itself! Perfect for that tropicool vibe! :)

I love all things tropical. Green and palm leaves - is there anything more soothing to add to a room?

I created the "Green Palm Zig Zags" for those that love tropical designs with high energy. This one is for those that want a more serene, calming design. I used the word "traffic" to describe how the leaves looked to me - traveling to and fro. Also available in green, aqua, pink, olive green and pear green!

Mythical creatures fascinate me. One day I wondered what a baby gryphon would look like. I bet it would be so cute - this is what was in my mind and I just had to draw it!
