Acorn Trilogy


Looks like a "mast" year for oaks this year. Acorns are littering our lawn. Little harbingers of autumn. Snacks for squirrels (deer eat them like popcorn, too!) Here's a threesome that I colored digitally. Scratchboard line art.

US TOO!!! I've noticed that! I love watching the squirrels scurry around and the deer enjoy them! We also have an inordinate amount of black walnuts... but I always say that, since they are a pain to clean up! Cute acorn illo! I love it! Are you going to the Des Moines SCBWI conference in October? thats when it is right?

I'm not sure yet- our daughter's b-day is the 24th and a party should naturally be that weekend. But we could maybe swing it the 17th, a week earlier...SCBWI Iowa hasn't posted any details on their website yet, but when they do, I'll see whose coming and judge whether it'll be good for me to go.

Checked out your Etsy shop just today- had missed that you had one. Loved the variety of product!
