It's #kidlitartpostcard day!! I'm Jessie, an author and illustrator of children's picture books seeking representation. I focus on filling my work with whimsy and joy. All my illustrations are hand drawn, inked, and painted with watercolor.

Some fun little trivia items about me...

My favorite television show since I was 7 years old is Murder She Wrote. I've watched every episode (12 seasons worth) more times than I can count.

I have a phobia of birds. Very much enjoy illustrating them and I love having bird feeders in our yard. But ever since I was attacked by chickens when I was a kid (totally my fault for surprising them), I have major fear of birds -- especially when they swoop.

My favorite flower is the tulip. I think they are just so beautiful. Unfortunately it's very difficult to grow them where we live in Texas (we don't get a cold enough winter for the bulbs). But I love getting them at the market and have some faux ones that sit in a vase in my studio.
