what happened to august

This month is coming to a close, and I can’t believe how quickly it went!
Fresh from the kitchen studio is my Portrait of my sweet boyfriend Phil who loves lizards. Pictured with him is our dearly missed uromastyx Biko.

And I was telling my son the story of Rapunzel and drew this picture as I was telling it.

But my favorite part of this week were the new picture books I got. I found these 2 old gems as I was shelving the best section in the store.

*The Grouch and the Tower and Other Sillies* by John O’brien….

just look at the walking house, and tree headed people!

Then there’s *Long Ago a Moonboat* by Christopher Carroll…

This one’s loaded with beautiful, intricate illustrations. I wish I could show them all to you.
