She started with free coloring pages printed from the web and a very basic set of Bic Flair felt tip markers. Today she colors pages primarily from the books of Millie Marotta using a wide variety of media—markers, gel pens, paint pens, colored pencils—to create wildly creative finished works, some of which can be seen for sale at Merriman & Pfister.
