Soooooo thrilled to finally be able to announce my partnership with @wainsworldlicensing to today! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 I first started looking into the world of licensing way back in 2014. So happy to have found a great person to start a new chapter in this journey🙂🙂🙂! #artlicensing #greetingcard #partytime

This is 97 of my #the100dayproject of #florals! It's been a great learning process. Happy Wednesday, Everyone! #printandpattern #birdsbutterfliesandblooms #watercolorflowers #floralart #watercolor #dailypaint #floralbouquet

Anemones in #gouache and #stabilopencil. Experimenting with single flowers so I can possibly make patterns with them. #dailypaint #the100dayproject #birdsbutterfliesandblooms #floralart #florals

Went to @queensnightmarket with Jamie yesterday night. Haven't sketched and painted on site in a long while and it was so relaxing! Amazing food too! #watercolor #dailypaint #flushingfood #flushingmeadows

Some more peonies and two "fails". These are #90, 91, and 92 of the #the100dayproject #florals #floralart #birdsbutterfliesandblooms #watercolorflowers #watercolor #watercolor

Attempted to make a pattern from one of my daily florals. This isn't a true repeat pattern --- have to review how to make those in PSD.... It's been so long. I know @annewashereandthere has a great Skillshare one though! #printandpattern #birdsbutterfliesandblooms #florals #floralart #patternplay #watercolorflowers #watercolor

When you're feeling the heat and humidity in July, just remember that winter is coming! #melissaiwai #polar bears #greetingcard #illustration_art #winteriscoming #frolic
