Through the Year is a collection of fourteen drawings, paired with poems about the different seasons and holidays depicted. It begins with “Winter Tree,” and progresses chronologically through the year, ending on “New Years.” Lighthearted, concise and whimsical, the poetry makes for a fun, easy read before giving readers a chance to search through the festive drawings for hidden hedgehogs or butterflies or Christmas candies. As shown in the concept pages, a key will be provided on each spread, revealing some of the images they can find.

About Me:

I began my art business, Art by Mark(er), four years ago and have grown a steady following online and in-person at art shows where I will also be able to sell my books. I am also a novelist who has been a founding member of my writing group for ten years, and a member of the DFW Writers' Workshop for three.

Thank you for your time.
