About the book
Little Blue and Little Yellow are best friends, but one day they can’t find each other. When they finally do, they give each other such [...]
As an artist, I feel so lucky my parents always encouraged me to follow my dreams. As a mama of a 2-year old boy with a huge imagination, I want to let him explore, learn, and reach high to whatever he wants to be. One of the things I love most about being a parent [...]
I went to Socrates Sculpture Park and was glad to see their current exhibition entitled Vista. It was refreshing to find a clever group of sculptures/installations in one place.

The last couple [...]
