| My Studio With A View's South Facing View of the Mummy Range |
Summertime is said to be "dead" in the publishing world. So many publishers are on vacation and the ones keeping up the pace might have their minds elsewhere, maybe on the beach or the mountains. This summer was anything but dead. However it can be hard to focus with nature calling to get out and explore. Here's a view from my desk to give you an idea of how enticing it can be working in the foothills northwest of Fort Collins.

This mandala artwork, "Shortgrass Prairie" is part of a series I'm illustrating for my licensing representative.

| Gardener Girl end page artwork |
Seems one mandala leads to another. Here's art for front and back end pages for another book that I'm writing and illustrating. You'll be seeing more of this in the coming months. I've got a few books I'm working on and one just SOLD (after three years of writing, researching, drawing, designing, editing, submitting query after query and more revisions) so I'm stoked!
And below are some sweet peas for Seed Packets. If you're sensing a "nature theme" here you would be right.

| Marianne Berkes and Over on the Farm |
Marianne Berkes is one of my favorite authors and from what I know she never rests. Here she is on her latest book tour.
Over on the Farm is one of the books we did together and it's featured in Learning Magazine for the month of September. We've included lots of fun activities for kids too.

And finally above is the new logo and badge artwork for
Sedona Trolley. Collaborating with their marketing director was so much fun. She shared lots of beautiful scenery of the amazing Sedona mountains.
Thanks for taking a look. Please click on each image for more information or a larger view.
