When war comes to Sofiya’s country, she and her mother and grandmother are forced to set off on a long journey to escape the violence and find safety. Sofiya doesn’t know whether she will ever see her friends or her beloved garden again, so she takes a sunflower with her as a reminder of all that she is leaving behind. But this homegrown keepsake has a surprise in store—one that will help Sofiya put down her own roots and feel at home in a new place.

“Say Yes” is a book by Mike Klumpp. He spent many years traveling around the world- discovering, exploring, and lending a helping hand. It was really lovely working with Mike and Wickhouse Publishing to bring his story to life.

This is a multidisciplinary project with a local middle school. We took a public domain poem- “Winter” by Walter de la Mare, I made art to the text, and a local composer set it to music. It is scheduled to be performed December 2022.

In 2019 I had the pleasure of working with El Dorado Games doing art for their board game Capone. Capone is a game based on bootlegging in Prohibition era Chicago. It was a successful Kickstarter raising over 200% of its goal.
