When I start designing I usually tend to create designs and illustrations geared towards girls. Not sure if it's because I am/was a girl or if I just love really cutesy, sweet inspired clothes and patterns, but I feel that I've sorely neglected the boys' market.

Although I've been illustrating for over a decade, I feel it's still important for me to keep learning and discovering new things and I've found Skillshare to be a wonderful source of constant inspiration.
Read MoreThis week's Net Picks focuses on designs for boys. I have been loving the woodland trend that has been pretty popular for a while now!

Read MoreI'm sure many of you are still experiencing the typical cold weather that comes with winter so I thought I'd showcase a collection of lovely warm, tropical selections for this week's Net Picks! I was born and raised in Hawaii so I'm not a stranger to tropical weather (I've only experienced snow once in my life)! It's funny how being surrounded and accustomed to certain wonders on a daily basis can make you take them for granted! I literally grew up in a pineapple field so while some crave the fruit as a delicacy, I actually don't eat it at all.
