Is a published Illustrator

I am so excited to announce that I am now a published Illustrator.  Check out the fall issue of Hybrid Mom magazine, now being sold at Barnes and Nobel.  Look for my drawings on page  6, 46, 47, and page 48.  The food watercolor and the pen and ink drawings are done by me.  I am ever excited and it feels great to see my name in print.

I have enjoyed making this flower and many others.  just pin them on your jacket, scarf, hat, or in your hair.  They add a little bit of color and fun to brighten up your day.  Please check them out at my Etsy store.  And I would love to hear your comments and ideas.  What color flowers would you love to have added to your life?

And check back soon for my Winter Poll for a chance to win a free gift bag.

My Friendly Typer

Hi my name is Charlie and I love to sing, dance, chew, and type.  Listing to different sounds is a joy in my life.  The sound that a bell makes and the noise of the tip tap on the key board that I make with me feet.  I also like tapping on the computer screen but mommy gets mad.  Just wanted to sat "Hello" and I will share more stories soon.

This is my hansom baby boy Charlie.  He is 9 year old Cocktail that has been part of my life since he was 8 months old.  He is great company and always brings a smile to my face with all the silly things he does.

Deer in the Backyard

My second story bedroom and studio and the beautiful view.  I now and then will see deer in the backyard.  This is just a baby and the mom is somewhere near by.

Here is a close up of the deer eating the grass.  My dad is not so happy about this since the grass was just  planted.

Happy Winter

Happy Winter even though it is 70 degrees out side today.  I designed these cute new greeting cards.  What do you think? Do you like the color?

Fall Rooster

I went for a walk at Colonial Williamsburg and stumble across these roosters.  The rooster cage was covered so I had to photograph threw the wood siding.  I love how the wood frames the photo and the colors of the rooster.  

Pumpkin Carving - Halloween

My mom and I carved pumpkins for Halloween like we do almost every year.  My favorite part is cleaning out the pumpkins before I start carving. I carved the Frankenstein pumpkin and my mom carved the skeleton.  They came out great but we did not have any trick or treater.
