It never really feels like spring to me until the catbirds come back. I saw my first one last week! Have you spotted any?
.
I’ll be at @westcraftfest this Saturday with @charlotteryansweb . I think this chickadee and blossom poster was the first one I drew for West Craft Fest! Love that it is “new” again!

Happy Friday!

It seems like perfect weather for toads here in Philly, doesn’t it?

I’ll have these toad cards and stickers with me at @clovermarket in @chestnuthillphilly this Sunday! I’ll be there with @mescdesigns .

Ciao!
My toad saying “ciao” notecard is one of my most popular, but the illustration was more than ten years old! I decided to redraw it with a more realistic toad. What do you think?
.
It was inspired by a toad I saw with @zgillespiephoto . He got a great photo! (Last pic).
.
I’ll have toads and lots of other critters with me at @clovermarket in @chestnuthillphilly this Sunday! I’ll be there with @mescdesigns 💍

Hello out there! It’s been a wild start to the y

Hello out there!
It’s been a wild start to the year!
January was my busiest yet, especially with orders from shops. You can now find my work in shops in 41 states! (Maybe I’ll get to all 50 this year).
Then I was sick pretty much all last month. The ‘Rona finally caught me after four years of avoiding it, and it wouldn’t let go!
Now I’m back in the studio. I’m playing a little catch up, and trying to make this month a little more balanced than the previous two. I want to concentrate on creative work going forward, but this year has definitely been unpredictable!
.
Do you have any goals for March? What’s your yet been like?
.

Cheers! Happy 2024!

I’m back to work today, but had a nice walk to start the year yesterday. I didn’t see my owl neighbors; they must have been recovered from their NYE celebrations!
.
How did you start 2024?

We’re reaching the end of 2023, and I just want to say thank you!!
.
I’m so grateful for all of you. Whether you are a regular customer, a shop that carries my work, someone who shared kind words or encouragement, or someone who just follows along on here quietly: I appreciate all of it!
.
I feel so lucky (and a little overwhelmed) to do what I do, and there’s no way I could do it on my own. Special shout outs to @zgillespiephoto and @charlotteryansweb who helped me get orders out the door this year, and fed me snacks and coffee when I got grumpy.
.
I’ll see you all in 2024!

If you’ve picked up this raccoon print at a local market, you’ve probably heard me talk about my neighbor, Scritchy. (Kind of like a combo of Itchy and Scratchy from the Simpsons 😂).
.
Scritchy lived in a tree outside my window, and came back for several winters. But this year her home seems to be sublet by a family of squirrels. Still entertaining, but I miss seeing her! Who are your wild neighbors?
.
I’ll have raccoon prints and stickers with me at the @artstarphilly Holiday Procrastinator Market!
Join us for a procrastinator’s market that will help you cross everything off your holiday shopping list in one spot! We will be hosting 30 curated craft vendors inside at the Independence Visitor Center at 599 Market Street. We will all be selling handmade goods perfect for gift giving.
Also be sure to check out The Last Minute Lounge at Liberty View, featuring seasonal refreshments, iconic views with fun holiday selfie spots; and Make-and-take holiday craft stations for kids.

This jolly trolly card was designed two years ago, but it’s still been a best seller this month!
Has anyone seen the jolly trolly in west Philly yet?
Which animal passenger would you be? I’d probably be one of the pigeons in the back!

Here’s the full selection of my ornaments for this year! Which one is your fave??
.
For those of you who put up trees: do you put your tree up right after thanksgiving or do you wait a little? Mine’s definitely not going up for a little while. 😂

I’ll have ornaments and lots of art at A Bit of the Arts tonight and tomorrow @ledc
.
If you have an eye on any of these, I would suggest ordering soon! 1/3 of my stock has already sold. (Especially the Eagle! 🦅)

These starry and snowy deer are a reoccurring theme in my work. Which version is your favorite?? I like my snowy deer ornament.

Raise your hand if you have this print in your home!

This Dandelion and Rabbit piece was originally painted ten years ago for a library fundraiser. It’s one of the oldest prints I sell, and it has recently been popular again.

I’ll have some with me at @artstarphilly , as well as lots of other critters. Stop by this weekend!

Hi!
It’s me! You friendly neighborhood butterfly wrangler.
.
This time of year, very little drawing gets done. I’ve been filling holiday orders for shops, and all of your Etsy orders (thank you all!!). So I’m stringing garlands, folding cards, counting ornaments, and a bunch more unglamorous tasks. But I am so so grateful for it all!
.
This weekend I’ll be at the holiday @artstarphilly craft bazaar!! It’s such a fu n event! Get there early to snag a tote bag.
.
I want to make a quick note that I’m not completing a 2024 calendar (I know, I totally lied). BUT I know some amazing artists who also created nature inspired calendars. Please get one from:
@megstampede @caseygirard @owlandbearstudio @tinyhousebigwoods @bluejarstudio
.
Tag yourself if you’ve created one for 2024 too!
.
Thanks again for keeping me busy and purchasing art!

We’re skating into a busy November over here! Which animal do you think would be the best ice skater?

This weekend @charlotteryansweb and I will be at @swarthmore_makers_market on Sunday.
And we’ll be at @linvillaorchards arts & craft festival all weekend! (@zgillespiephoto will be holding down the fort for us Sunday)
.
I will be bringing some winter and holiday items (like this new pigeon ice skating ornament) for you early holiday shoppers.

The collective noun for a group of owls is a parliament.
.
I chose to draw barred owls for this illustration. In 2022 a mama barred owl made her nest nearby, and had three babies. She came back this year too! This drawing was based on lots of observations and pictures of this owl family taken by @zgillespiephoto .
.
Barred owls stay together as a family throughout the summer. We found the three babies hanging out together on branches last year, and named the oldest Barry. We never gave the mama a name though! Maybe next year.
.
I’ll have prints of these owls tomorrow at @clovermarket in Bryn Mawr. Come say hi! 🍂
