Seasons of change.

Last week our little house on 221st street sold. While on a bike ride soon after, it hit me how many big seasons have happened these last few years!

Of course, I neverContinue reading “Queer colouring pages!”

Since I work full-time in children’s animation and illustrating kids books, sometimes I love to dust off my graphic design skills for fun. I have always loved those vintage-esque travel posters – but who is traveling anywhere right now?? Well, they are opening up some local things around us, which helps ease the Groundhog DayContinue reading “Local travel posters”
