Well, in case anyone has been wondering where the heck I’ve been and why I haven’t posted here in months, here is the reason:
yes, I have been making bears, bears and more bears! They are finally on their way to Manhattan where they will appear in the Tedde shop at Bryant Park. If you are in the city, stop in for a look-see!
So there is the biggest reason, aside from general laziness, haha. In publishing news, I have FINALLY finished the cover for Miss Tutu’s Star, yaaaaay!!!! A relief to have my part of that project finished, for sure. You won’t find it on the shelves until next fall, but look for it then. Don’t worry, I’ll remind you when it comes out!
The Open Studios at the Mill at Salmon Falls is this weekend, so I’ve been struggling to get things done for that, agh! This year’s ornament is an elephant, Enid and her Precious Peanut. They will be few and far between (see reason above) but I have tried my best to get enough done for people, and here are some preview photos:
My daughter Erin will be selling her cute wares there too – check them out here!

In other news, the lovely Brooke featured my muppet prints in her blog a couple of weeks ago. Check it out here. Thanks, Brooke!

(picture Kermit the Frog waving arms about) My current project is illustrating a story about a little girl taking ballet lessons, called Miss Tutu’s Star. I have finished the preliminary sketches and am waiting to hear whether I am even on the right track, or whether I have to start all over again, ugh! We shall see. Soon, hopefully. Here are a couple of the sketches:
