Tired mid 30s artist

So, while I've been hiding under a rock for two years, my sister and I picked up work on our middle grade book again. Its a magical fantasy journey where two little black girls are transported to the north pole.

Its sweet and full of the warm vibes of our childhood holidays, with big family, community, and supportive themes. My sister is the writer, so there's a lot more information on the website, here:

Its exciting to put this out there, since we conceived these two girls years ago. If you sign up for the newsletter, we'll be sending out some coloring book pages as we go, and I had so much fun making the sort of coloring pages I wished I had as a kid:
coloring book page with savvy shaking her hair, which is in heavy twists

After this gets launched, I'll be getting back into some of my more usual work, but as an artist it has been really rewarding to collaborate with my sister and put out something that we both enjoy. I hope you grab it if it sparks your interest!
