Christmas in June:Reflection on 2009
It has been awhile since my last post.
2010 has been exciting year so far and busy. My 2010 ornaments are in production and I am gearing up for a busy Fall. Lots of events are planned and for those of you who subscribe to the Landmark newsletter already know that I will be doing a five city tour- including stops in Tampa, LA, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Chicago, and NYC. Stay tuned for more in upcoming blog posts.
Also this year, you will be seeing a line of stationery in stores that I am launching with a Louie Award winning company called a la cards.
For all of you that know that I also work in Book Publishing- I am now VP Creative Director of St. Martin’s Paperbacks and continuing to work on packages for Emily Giffin, Kristin Hannah, Janet Evanovich, Lisa Scottoline, and others.
I am excited to share that I have also illustrated a book on the retelling of the journey of Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem for New York Times bestselling author Donna Van Liere- who is known for her wonderful book The Christmas shoes. The book is called The Christmas Journey, in stores this fall
As I said, an exciting year for which I feel very lucky.
Looking back on 2009- what a wonderful season it was. It was so great to see so many of my collectors at my events. I had the energy to decorate my home withsix trees- photo highlights are posted. As you can see my pugs are always there to help me out…
and they are honored with their own tree!
Soon I will be attending the Golden glow convention in Milwaukee- I hope that I will get to see many of you there.
Until the next sketch!
