Mermaid?

So here's a weird thing I drew tonight.

Lovely Little Things

Hand lettering for fun.

Miri Tee Logo

Miri Tee logo by me for Aeolidia

Here's one of the rejected roughs from the design process that didn't quite fit her business, but I still like it. It was a little too young for her business. Would have worked great for a kid's shop.

Weather Report

Such a lovely time of year in Seattle.

Happy Valentine's Day. Your dog loves you.

Your dog loves you but is also slightly creepy.

Elephant and bird

Not much to say about this one. Just drew this for fun, like 90% of everything I post here.

Mystery in the rainforest!

What's happening here? I don't know! It's a mystery!

Here's a lady in a dress.

It's a lady! In a dress!

Illustrations for King County Library System - and hey, it's also Chinese New Year! And there's a dragon!

I recently had the great pleasure of doing some illustrations for King County Library System, which I was SUPER EXCITED about, because, well, LIBRARY!!!

The theme was "Many Voices, One Land," to promote their multicultural events. I was very honored to be asked to do these illustrations.

And, luckily, I'm posting this just in time for Chinese New Year, so you get to see a little dragon parade.

Here are some little spot illustrations as well. My favorite are the Indian dancers.

Naturalist spot illustrations

Some natural science-y spot illustrations. Just for fun times.

Black cat barely tolerates your existence.

Rainforest

I felt like drawing a rainforest... and it kind of grew and grew, like rainforests do.

Spot of Tea

A little teapot spot illustration for the back of my latest promo card.

Wee Mondine Logo for Aeolidia

Here's a logo I did a while ago, just getting around to posting it now.

Happy Winter Solstice

It's not quite the solstice yet, but close enough.

Witches celebrate Winter Solstice, right? Happy Winter Solstice, all you adorable witches.

Camp Secret

I'm excited to announce that a book I worked on earlier this year has just come out!  Camp Secret, by Kathryn Dennis and Melissa Mahle (who, by the way, no big deal, is a former CIA intelligence agent), is a middle grade novel that follows four kids as they discover that their summer camp is really a training ground for junior spies. It's a really fun read, and you can read the first chapter here, or learn more about the book and the authors at their website.
