Iβve been doing some painting when I can find time. I love doing studies from the places Iβve hiked to. This pool was the same colour as blue Gatorade. In the back is Yukness Mountain.

Early copies of the next Nature in Action books from MIT Kids Press! What a wonderful early Christmas present. Iβm so happy with how these turned out!! π
Not this year. I was going to skip this year entirely to wait out tariff uncertainty, but then was invited to do a Christmas pop up. Iβm hoping to bring them back next year with some new designs!
Finished my Christmas Ornaments for a pop up this weekend at Campland in Calgary!

Making mini cucumbers and tomatoes! Ahhh. Iβm addicted! π
Yesss!!! Dioramas are the best! Iβve been wanting to make one for so many years! I always get started and never finish! π°
Tiny food is the cutest! Iβve been obsessed for years, but this is my first time attempt making it! Yeah! I need a small wall hanging one!
Anytime I hear the words Pew Survey my brain automatically says βPew-Pew!β π« anyone else? Pew clearly needs to get some lasers and sound effects to make their surveys more exciting.
Finally got around to attempt miniature food making! So tiny. So satisfying. Now where to put them so I donβt lose them forever?!
Iβm thrilled to share the cover for Night Prints! π
This is the follow-up to Whose Prints?, written by the wonderful @kariallenwrites.bsky.social and illustrated by me.
