Thank you so much. I checked out your art and found your work charming! ❤️

Mother #ducks don’t mind if extra passengers come along for a ride on moonlit nights.
If anyone actually sees my little kid-friendly illustrations, please say hello. I’d love to meet art-friendly folk on Bluesky. If you like my art you can see more on Instagram @mariebee10

I’m new to bluesky, and just found out it’s #goblinweek, so I drew this little guy. Not cool or segzzy - just a small #goblin enjoying a Saturday treat.

For SCBWI's Draw This! January 2026 prompt, Dreams, a rainbow-patterned dragon holds a gleaming gold star-within-a-star. A moon-within-a-moon smiles at the dragon. The dragon rests on shiny gold-patterned bubbles. The blue background shines with silver diamonds and gold stars.

We have so many #Dreams for our world right now, and so does our dragon! 🩵 #scbwidrawthis #authorillustrators #dragon #kidlitart #scbwi #scbwiillustrators #cutpaperart

For the #scbwidrawthis prompt dream I made this! Inspiration in the comments! #kidlit

Thank you 😊

Thank you 😊 I’m looking for illustrators to follow so it’s wonderful to meet you two!

Very pretty. Love the colours!

When I was a little kid, I used to dream of swimming under the water like a mermaid. So, when I read the prompt for the December/January #scbwidrawthis, I knew exactly what to do - explore the deep sea with a mermaid and her friends! #scbwi #scbwiillustrators

Very cute. Reminds me of the “Little Bear” books which I’ve always loved.

This little guy is also a “villain” in my upcoming picture book, but the good guys find a way to help. I believe that kindness and generosity could save this troubled world. We need to teach our kids that being kind is more important than being best. That’s what this book is all about.

With all the real life villains in the world today, my little fox seems pretty civilized. However, just like real world bad guys, he’s taking something that doesn’t belong to him, and not caring who he hurts.
Perhaps this is a lesson that little kids need to learn while their hearts are still open?

Starting 2026 off with a bang! This is my first Bluesky post, and an illustration to introduce my upcoming picture book, “Winter’s Warmest Heart.” It’s a story about a tiny person living in a snowy forest, who discovers that sharing is the most heart-warming way to be a true friend.
