Mail Call!

Look what came in the mail, Liz Cleaves Illustration business cards! 

This is terribly exciting since finally I will be able to hand people a professional card, instead of writing on napkins and shreds of paper. Its also convient timing cause, I've been striking up conversations with people about my illustration business in the most random of places.  

So if you know who I am then you better believe that you are going to have a card placed in your hand or sneaked into your pocket. Cause who does not want great design and illustrations made for them by this talented illustrator ?

Surprise Package

Today is full of surprises! 

After coming home from my morning class, there was a package waiting for me. Having known that I had not recently been on Amazon, I questioned its contents. 

It was a gift from one of my favorite people, Elizabeth Kiger who planed this gift from China. 

 It is one of the books that has been on my wish list, Food Rules and Eater's Manual by Michael Pollan. Illustrated by one of my favorite artists Maria Kalman! 

Did a happy dance in the kitchen and smelled the binding. 

Thank you Ellie!!!
