Tallulah and Mighty clear their heads after working so hard creating picture books and very silly coloring books...
I’m a picture book author-illustrator, singer-songwriter and multi-media fine artist from Western Ma who shares a ten acre kettle pond with beavers, turtles, fireflies and blue herons.
