New Book Just Released!
The latest children's book I've been working on for a year, A Magnificent Misunderstanding, now lives in the real world! Be sure to grab a copy from our publisher, Little Creek Press. Please tell your local book store that you want to buy a copy or three from them so we can get it on their shelves. If you live in the Chicagoland area and want a copy, let me know. Events to come!

The Ultimate Treehouse game has been one of the most fun, wonderful, and rewarding projects I’ve ever been fortunate enough to work on. 100 are arriving soon, and 400 more are on the way. Stay tuned for how to nab your very own! #illustration #art #boardgames #cardgames #familyfun #treehouse #local #evanstonmade (at Evanston, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZDRSi6r1sF/?utm_medium=tumblr
