I’ll tell you, it’s not an easy task drawing 13 noses like those, let alone all that facial hair
They may not be thirteen of the best, nor brightest, but they’re certainly the most fun to paint! And a bonus: some riddles in the dark to start the week!
Happy Monday! ✨
This is so gorgeous

“There is no religion without love, and people may talk as much as they like about their religion, but if it does not teach them to be good and kind to man and beast, it is all a sham—all a sham.”

Ahh hello! Here’s my book that I worked on last semester for my independent study class that I am finally posting (please click for full view)! It’s about a little boy’s day out exploring the city and seeing scenes of fantasy and magic in the midst of the everyday. I guess I wanted to make something about the small, unnoticed worlds that happen in every individual’s daily lives and minds.
It would mean so so much if you shared this around! If you’d like to support, you can preorder here (I’m making booklets!!! ( •̀ᄇ• ́)ﻭ✧) Thank you guys!!

I haven’t shown you part of my blood sweat and tears from this year!! I illustrated a book for the first time a recipe book for kids!

I had so much fun designing a new book cover for Mary Norton’s The Borrowers. I’m also slowly falling more in love with hand lettering and frilly, late Victorian knick knacks.
