Happy July! This is an illustration for the cover of the July issue of Providence Monthly. The idea was to combine the Providence skyline with a growing garden. I spent a lot of time drawing out the vines and leaves; it’s great to get to illustrate for the cover because it is printed so large that details translate really well. Here’s a slightly different version than was used:

…and a snapshot of the cover:

As someone who drags her feet through freezing New England winters, the coming of summertime is definitely the happiest part of my year. Sunshine, fresh air, warmth; I’ll take a summer day over any other! In celebration of this seriously sweet season, I’m offering a special deal on my prints. Buy one print, get 1/2 off a second print (of equal or lesser value).
Just a little fine print: discounts will be given after the order is placed. Wish it could be automatic but unfortunately Etsy doesn’t offer that yet! Also, there is no limit to the number of prints you can purchase, so feel free to stock up on birthday presents, “just because” goodies, and early-bird holiday gifts!
I bet you can think of dozens of people who could use some art in their lives. So what are you waiting for? Get shopping!

It’s no secret, I have a definite obsession with patchwork. There are some images that instantly hit me as a perfect opportunity to show off some mixed-and-matched fabrics. This was one of them! I loved piecing together flowery fabric to make this tortoise’s shell.
Want a Slow & Steady print for yourself? It’s available in 5″x7″ and 8″x10“!

I found this the other day when I was looking for something else, and I don’t think I’ve ever shown it before! An applique/embroidery illustration of a girl in a mint green dress.
