The most colorful time of my year.

It’s been a pretty busy year with work and a new human who is just 5 months old.  

I love this time of year. It reminds me of plum pudding my mum used to make with Guinness and mixing it with a wooden spoon to make a wish. Lighting a candle and leaving it in the window to welcome strangers. My Irish Christmas is very different to my American one. My house is full of color which inspired the color in these illustrations. 

So here is to disconnecting and enjoying time with people we love... and also FaceTiming home on Christmas Day. 

The illustrations are a mix of watercolor and gouache.
