One of my greatest treasures...a postcard from Maurice Sendak. I wrote him an ardent fan letter, and he was kind enough to reply. An artist and a mensch.

The Empress of Mouseland Talks:
Today I had the pleasure of being interviewed by writer and artist Rice Freeman-Zachery for her podcast , Notes from the Voodoo Cafe. We talked about mice, work, and creativity; and she inquired delicately about obsession. You can listen to it here.

Mouseland article
This is the first page from an article in Art Doll Quarterly, Spring 2012, in which I talk about the development and construction of the mice, my evolution as an artist, and creating "The House That Mouse Built". I'll post a link to the whole article as soon as it's available.
