The world will mark dates later this week that hold more weight for the past year, but today is the day I remember. The day I could not spend with the one I love and would rather be with. Who knew what was to come. A year later she sits by my side—my office mate, […]
In honor of International Women’s Day 2021, I thought I’d post one of the illustrations I’d done years ago for that most famous of fairy tales, Cinderella. Many women don’t like the Cinderella story, feeling like it perpetuates the stereotype of the frailer sex in need of the protection and salvation of a man. To […]

I have been looking over the daily routine and trying to factor in the things that matter the most. Make it practice, make it perfect. I grew up on a printing press—assisting. I watched as the schedule was adjusted daily. Pushing to do better but never getting too far ahead of ourselves. It was the […]

This week’s post is a reportage illustration from August 2019, made on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. I was mid-drawing when the skies opened up and the rain decorated my page. I ducked into a nearby Italian restaurant and called my friend Marg, who lives nearby, and she met me for lunch. It’s those […]

I first posted this in 2018 as I was working on imagery to represent what I was sensing. I saw it happening not only in the press but also on social media and among friends. The list of things we aren’t allowed to discuss is growing. People are being de-platformed, smeared and demonized. I believe […]

No matter what the political climate, one thing remains true: children love to sled down snowy hills in winter! This was the scene at Central Park in NYC this past Saturday afternoon. So many children and their parents enjoying the day, laughing and calling out to each other, making memories that will last a lifetime. […]

The Blue Heron that’s been visiting our pond these passed couple of weeks keeps really still and blends with the plants near the water as it patiently waits for the right moment to feed. I used to have a hard time telling the difference between herons and cranes and egrets. I even know what an […]
