Sorry I have not been posting very regularly... Life has thrown me for a loop and I it rarely even occurs to me to update the blog!
One of the major reasons I have recently fallen off the face of the blog world has been my increased work load combined with a raw immune system among 250+ germ-y elementary students. When I haven't been sick or racking my brain for lesson ideas, I've been drawing and working on the design jobs that have been coming in. In January I spent the majority of my time in bed or with these floral illustrations (one of the series posted below).
While the work was difficult (mostly because of the short deadline and the sickies), I really enjoyed getting to draw again—before this my freelance work was largely digital, though now I am asked to illustrate more frequently, which is great.
It was also cool to research the event that the illustrations were displayed—the National Floral Show in Philadelphia. This is the largest flower show in America and my work was seen by about 300,000 people! Talk about exciting! Below is an image from the specific exhibit that my work was in (you can see my drawings on the posters in the back).

Anyway, that's what I've been doing, or at least one of the major reasons I have not been posting very often. When I finally get some free time, I find that I would rather spend it annoying my husband. I'm not sorry.
