Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! Starting 2026 with this illustration feels just right. I'm a picture book illustrator represented by Lori Steel of Steelworks Literary, and I love exploring themes of family, tenderness, and moments of care. I'm looking forward to sharing more art with you this year.

Hi Lauren. Thanks for the subscribe, comment, and question. I was asked to teach an evening class many years ago, I think the faculty were desperate for teachers. I kept getting classes here and there. I went back to school to get an MFA, then started applying for open tenure positions.
