I DRAW EVERY DAY.
I make art-based products that let 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 with my kids that day. 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.
