The Enormous Tiny Art Show #16
September is almost here, which brings me to another Enormous Tiny Art Show at Nahcotta Gallery in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. This time, I have 6 new paintings that showcase my love of collectibles and collections. If I were rich, I'd have a collection of Japanese snuff bottles like this- but for now all I can do is paint them...
The show opens Friday, September 5th. All works are available for purchase online here.

On The Wing
This is the most exciting post this blog has seen yet...I'm finally able to share a preview of my first ever illustrated children's book, On The Wing!
Almost 2 years ago, Candlewick Press asked me to illustrate a beautifully written poetry/picture book by renowned children's author, David Elliott. It was scary to take on such a large project for the first time, but I ended up with one of the most gratifying, and worthwhile experiences I've had as a freelancer so far.David is wonderful. I couldn't have asked for a better pairing (especially for a rookie like me). Read more about David Elliott and his books on his website, here.
Candlewick's description of On The Wing -"Take to the sky to explore a glorious array of all things avian, from the tiny, restless hummingbird to the inscrutable horned owl to the majestic bald eagle. David Elliott and Becca Stadtlander bestow a sense of wonder onto such common birdfeeder visitors as the sparrow, the crow, and the cardinal and capture the exotic beauty of far-flung fowl like the Andean condor, the Australian pelican, and the Caribbean flamingo. Concise, clever verse from an award-winning author pairs with striking artwork from a debut illustrator to make this a true pleasure for anyone who loves birds."
On The Wing is a 32 page hardcover picture book. Available September 9th.
