This is my idea for JoY! I did this card and
yesterdays post with the same greeting card company,
Marisol Inc. Another one of those dream jobs where she saw my work in Colorado, tracked me down and asked if I wanted to join her company. They came to visit me in Topanga and brought me specs on their everyday line. This was a template and the words to be used in each card. So I got to create whatever I wanted as long as it went with the words! I would send the artwork to Colorado once a week and I would receive a cheque with my originals. It was the perfect blend. I loved working for Marisol and we made cards and stationary for quite a few years.

Your work has a wonderful storybook feel to it. Have you illustrated any children's books?

Thank You to everyone, you are all so kind to me. I have illustrated a couple of children's stories with a couple of writers who let's just say they thought they had a publishing deal,(that way they got me to work on spec) and it hasn't panned out yet. I do live in lala land.
