Sashi for Pre-Order

My first published book is now available for Pre-Order! I am so excited to see Sashi the Scared Little Sheltie in person and of course in print! A percentage of sales will benefit Sheltie Rescue. This project has truly been a labor of love, its a precious story and would make a great holiday gift for any kid or family with pets.

In recent news, I have completed my fourth book (second to be published)--- Wilson Tries New Foods! Below are a few sneak-peaks. This book was such a pleasure to create and I learned a lot too, so its a great book for parents with kids who are hesitant or refuse to eat the things they need to grow and succeed.

In even more recent news--- I've started my fifth book! Benjamin Birdie's First Flight, written by Michael Dostikas. I am so excited about this story, its characters, its charm, its writing--- everything about it is so fresh and of course adorable. Below is the first 2 pages.

Wilson Tries New Foods

The above is pages 21-22 of Wilson Tries New Foods Children's Book. This book is so much fun! Author, Ashley Stewart, uses rhythm and catchy tunes to teach kids that eating well can be fun and that all you have to do is try it out and you'll see! I am now half-way done illustrating the book and I cannot wait to share the rest of it soon.

Wilson Tries New Foods & BPRA

I started a WebComic in my free time. Its called Bark Point Rescue Alliance. Each week the 'mission' is to help a cat or dog that has been waiting for their home for far too long. I have asked Rescues and Shelters-- and friends of Rescue-- to nominate real pets to be spotlighted. I have done 3 so far, and 1 has been adopted since! I am hoping this webcomic will take off and that people will be lining up to adopt a BPRA pet! I can dream big, can't I?

I also started working on my next book, Wilson Tries New Foods. I am really liking working in a new style! I have finished 6 pages so far and its going to be a fun book. Its very educational and it rhymes, which I LOVE. All kids need to learn how to eat healthy in a fun way~!

Third Book Complete!

After a year and half, Where's Ray is complete! We are still working out a few details, but its done! Hurray, here is the second to last spread. I have also attached my present for the sister's engagement as well as a concept for my next book, Wilson Tries New Foods-- which will be published by Brown Books Kids.

This is an older version of a Sashi Spread-- there were some changes made, but I wanted to post this version first.
