i have no where to go

I'm pretty sure most people are good at acting human, but the ones who are really good at it make it look so easy.

best newest (to me) blogs for booklove

vintage children books my kid loves title says it all... for sparking ideas for new illustrations, and having major memory lane love

fifi lapin well, I have to admit, when I first stumbled upon this illustrator I was just really annoyed. A hotbed for fashion magazine 'as seen in' namedropping fills the front page of fifi's website, but you know, a cute bunny in stylish clothes just makes every day a little better and I gotta give props to this viral creation.

charlie harper okay so, not so new, but I hadn't looked at his work online before, and this site seriously showcases almost all of his works, pretty sweet.

best for last...

kevin waldron just go look. love.

diiley studio is on its way! The sideboards and roof are complete and most of the framing is up! Now its just sheetrock and a few electrical + plumbing projects and diiley will be up and running! I am so excited to get painting for my show in December. Thank you Uncle Erik for letting diiley studios use this space, best farm studio ever!

Stay tuned for open studio and winter garden party details!

new studio DiiLEY

I am completely over the top excited about my new studio! The studio, and my new business, Diiley, will be up and running soon! I am working on the website and waiting for a few walls to be knocked down, rebuilt and dry-walled, then it is time to move in and get to work! I will post photos soon! xoxo

p.s. Diiley is my own made up spelling of the Danish word, Dijleg, which means delicious, wonderful and delightful. It is pronounced 'dy lee' and will make you smile when you say it!
