There is nothing I enjoy more than having a lazy snow day with the hubby while drawing fetching, fuzzy pets and sipping hot chocolate. Speaking of cute critters, I'm no longer working from home so I am really starting to miss being surrounded by our apartment full of rambunctious animals. I feel like a guilt stricken mom who has to drop her kids off at day care before work. Seriously, I am going through major adorable animal withdrawal. I suppose that's what
Cute Overload is for.
Anywho, here are the most recent critters from my
say hello to my little friends series! The last animals of the series will be a monkey, prairie dog, short-tailed opposum, skinny pig and degu. Hopefully I'll have 20 of these suckers by April 3rd when my opening reception at
Café Estelle rolls around.

The Year of the Splinter
I've been mailing my promotional postcards for the past week, but if I've forgotten anyone, feel free to leave a comment and I'll send one your way!
Be on the lookout for my new line of
tinymeat artist accessories within the next month! I don't want to spoil anything, but there might be a bunnytastic wallet and squirrely passport case available in the near future. Ok, so maybe I did want to spoil it. I couldn't be more thrilled to be involved with these guys!
For those of you who are local to the Philadelphia area, tonight is
Mew Gallery's 3rd annual "Pay the Rent" auction & raffle event, which I have donated a few of my prints to, so be sure to
check it out and show your support!
I've also snagged a summer group show at
Steel City Coffee House in Phoenixville, where a few of my exotic pets will be on display from May through July. After completing my exotic pet project, I'll be working on a series of birds drawn on wood, which will be unveiled at my next solo show at Philadelphia's
Studio 27.28 in February 2010, which seems like forever from now, but I'm sure it will be here before you know it!
As always, thanks for reading & enjoy your week (is anyone else excited as heck for the release of
Watchmen?)
Chock Full O' Critter News!
ZOMG! It's a Yoda fox!
One! Two! Three Figs! AH AH AH AH AH!
AAAAAAAAALLLLL-VVVVVIIIIIIINNNNNN! 
Thanks to Jena at Modish for the sweet post about my furry little critters!
Design for Mankind, Badder Homes and Gardens and Supah Cute are among the others who featured my work and made me squeal with their kind words. I also managed to snag a spot on the Etsy homepage twice in one week, which was a first for me!
In other news, I became an aunt on Friday the 13th! I can't wait to get started on her mural :)
Monkey Trouble
I enjoy illustrating cute critters, catching typos in magazines, watching Wonder Years marathons in my pjs with good company, cuddling my menagerie of pets and geeking out with my Google Reader.
