For the mini collection I put together a collection called Kitty Garden. I think it is sweet.

The little kitty in the main print is hiding behind flowers so it may be hard to see him, but you can enjoy the rest of his garden. Thanks for another chance to work on surface pattern design!

For many years I have taken my kids out on hikes with friends to study nature. We bring along our nature journals, pens and search for something to study. The kids loved sitting with their friends while they worked on their drawings. I tried to encourage a little writing in the books to make it more memorable later. Of course I had to join in and study with them. My love for nature study has inspired this collection, which I called Nature Study.

I used many of my drawings from my nature journal to create this collection. The plants and flowers that I had for inspiration come from South Dakota and Iowa, many right where Lewis and Clark went on their expedition.
