What a busy end of the year! I meant to make a cool year-end summary post but then I think I took 10 naps instead. I'm finally feeling recharged after taking time off work, laying on the couch, knitting, and working my way through my reading pile. Just when I feel ready to get some creative work done, it's back to real life! Oh, well.

Here are some fun things I've been meaning to post about:

My illustration was on the cover of Pinestraw Magazine! For those who live outside of Moore County, Pinestraw is a free publication put out by our local newspaper. In addition to all the info on local events and businesses, it also features great writing profiling historical events, local entrepreneurs, and beautiful homes. The photography, design, and the fact that they make a point to give a platform to local artists means that the issues are a hot commodity and snatched up every month when they hit the stands. I was beyond excited that art director, Andie Rose, not only thought of me for this job but then chose to put it on the cover. This was a dream job to close out 2017.

My mom got the cover framed for me for a Christmas present, so I'll get to keep a little piece of cheer up all year round! Happy New Year!
