I DRAW EVERY DAY.
I make art that lets you feel at home. More than a decade ago, I began a practice of making a drawing each night based on something that had happened that day with my kids. Thousands of drawings later, my art has grown into children's books, fine art prints and partnerships with global retailers. I still draw every day. I publish a new drawing every Sunday.
