TeTed / Illustrator

two young girls climb a tree. fruit from the tree falls into a basket. the hand drawn illustration is bathed in dappled light.

it’s #kidlitartpostcard day! Thought I’d share something sweet and summery in colored pencil. I don’t know about you, but these days I yearn for some peace and quiet. And a good climbing tree.

I’m a picture book illustrator based outside of philly. Seeking representation!

Chroma Corps Time! I want to experiment with paper crafting. I'm not sure if I can make it every day or if the quality of the crafting will be good, because I've never done this before. But but but I will keep playing and figure this out! 🤭✨
