It’s official! BECAUSE I’M NEW will be a picture book. Stay tuned for occasional updates on my progress…
Autumn Leaves In Winter /
We’re currently buried beneath nine inches of snow at our house, but just a week ago I was raking leaves with some “help” from a friend. We’re both smiling in this illustration, but only one of us is having a good time!
Cherry Blossom Chickadees /
A spring-like pattern for National Bird Day!
Snowy Cardinals /
We had a blizzard here in KC. The cardinals in my backyard didn’t seem to mind.
Prints on paper and canvas are available at my Society6 store.
Migrating Gulls /
Inspiration is all around us. Recently I looked directly overhead and witnessed hundreds of Franklin’s Gulls wheeling beneath an azure autumn sky. The image lodged in my brain and created an itch I had to scratch, resulting in the image, below.

Autumnal Equinox /
“Nuttin’ to see here, folks.” The squirrels in my neighborhood spend a good deal of time hiding/finding/moving acorns, but they’ve stepped it up a notch. Happy fall y’all! And happy spring to my Southern Hemisphere friends!
20 years and still running... /
This month marks the 20th anniversary of the publication of, The Pumpkin Runner. I so enjoyed illustrating Marsha Arnold’s tale, and am grateful to the good folks at Dial Books for Young Readers for giving me the opportunity. Also, a hearty THANKS to those of you who’ve added this title to your picture book collection. Without your support, Joshua Summerhayes and Yellow Dog would by now have run out of steam.
