May the 4th be with you!
As a kid, I enjoyed the world(s) of Star Wars! By the time I was a young mother, I endured the long lines of opening nights to take my kids to the latest installments.

It's awhile since I've been learning how to use Adobe Illustrator. Digital art is a challenge for me. I'm pleased to share the designs I've created! I'll be launching these designs for t-shirts ver...
