Thanks SVA Portfolio Curators!

I plowed through my emails yesterday to find a very welcome notification from The SVA Curation Team on the Behance Network, informing me that my kid’s illustration portfolio is featured. Proud to be an alumna, and I’m thrilled:) Here’s a link if you’d like to view the work. Advertisements
