I recently wrapped up a custom illustration for the cutest gal who is one of my rare clients that is located in the same state as me! About 90 percent of my clients are from other states, so it’s always a rare treat whenever I gain a client that lives in Minnesota.
Kelsey sent me a photo of herself and her mom during their recent time together and requested that I turn it into a custom illustration. These types of projects are easily one of my favorites–it’s so fun to watch the illustrated characters come to life. Her plan is to frame this illustration–wouldn’t that be the cutest gift?
Also, be sure to pop out of your reader and check out my Valentine’s Day header on the blog–I think it might be my favorite one yet!
Any fun Super Bowl plans? We’re headed to my friend Jenna’s house for a little get-together
Favorite Valentine’s Day candy? I love the Sweetarts conversation hearts!

Awww, the illustration is so realistic!! I really LOVE it. Also, how cool that you got a client in Minnesota
. I also love your header–it’s soo cute! I don’t have any Super Bowl plans… unless you count homework, haha. Favorite Valentine’s Day candy? Hmmm…. probably chocolate covered cherries.. not really a candy, but a treat
Thanks! I love that they’re hugging in the illustration!
Very cute! I love the Valentine’s Day header too!
