Emmy had a bebe!

What silly luck that little Jack would come just 15 minutes after my plane departed...but so very grateful that he came healthy and seemingly as perfect as can be.  It sure felt like a restful full gift to get to see Emily in those last days of pregnancy. And he was unnamed for a bit, but was fondly referred to as little bear throughout...so thus the little bear watercolor. I built some painted houses 'blocks' for him to play with his engineering smarty pants pops as well. Love this little family so so dear!

The season of gifting and creating

A fishing sketch with the topographic map of Steamboat Springs, Colorado and the prospective ski runs for a Fishing-Officiando turned Ski lover.

 Two of the home sketches for friends of their 'first homes'

And a personal favorite, old discarded fence wood turned EAT lettering to don the kitchens of some of my favorite little chefs.
