Hello again after quite a lengthy newsletter hiatus. May and June were full of so many new opportunities, wonderful people, fellow artists and creatives, and a breath of fresh air.

I’ve been working on building this small collection for months now and it’s finally time to share it with you! The collection includes prints, totes, and will soon also include some wearable items! All of my art is a form of personal expression, but this collection feels especially close to home. Illustrating in this style reminds me of the colorful children’s books I obsessed over in my childhood, and noting and researching the native plants and animals felt reminiscent of the observation notebooks I kept as a kid. When it comes down to it, making this collection was really just making art that I know younger me would have gone giddy over. And I hope that joy resonates with you.
