Hi, I'm Clarice! 

​

I am a children's author and illustrator based in Texas. 

​

My work celebrates childhood moments sprinkled with magic, nature, and adventure. I love learning and immersing myself in research (or fieldwork) for projects. And although I love all critters, I have a strict look-don't-touch rule for insects. Sorry buggies!    

 

Working with an NPO to raise awareness for wildlife would be a dream project. A good spooky mystery is also high on my list.  

 

When not working on art, you can find me staying active, curious, and busy building blanket forts with my little monkeys.
