Every art studio should have at least one cool chair, preferably bought at an antique store or flee market. Check out this beauty I purchased last week on Wickenden St. in Providence, RI. I love that my studio furniture now inspires me.
The pattern and cat are from my “Meow” collection and are available for licensing.

What a beautiful day it is again here in New England! Here’s some art I created for a greeting card that reminds me of the wonderful weather we are having. I hope it stays like this for a little while longer.

Today is my daughter’s 4th birthday! We had a wonderful birthday party for her yesterday and she got all the Smurfs and My Little Ponies that she had been dreaming of! (Including Papa Smurf and Smurfette). It’s funny, because those are the same gifts I dreamed of getting back in the day. Gotta love retro!

I found these Barbie note cards From Graphic De France, had to have them! Not because they are Barbie (talk about an enduring license) but because this is the type of fashion drawing that I am drawn too. Maybe because I grew up staring at my mother’s Vogue Patterns. I am am always inspired by this type of art. I feel like I just stepped out of a Doris Day movie! I created this bride for a wedding invitations that I am working on, I didn’t use too much color on her, I didn’t want her to overpower the invite it self but I could sketch all day like this.

I’ve been busy creating greeting cards and so I thought I’d show a sampling of them. They are filled with my painterly textures and patterns. So much fun to make! (To see a close-up please visit Lesley’s blog)

Are you ready to start your Holiday shopping? The MoMA just posted their 2009 holiday card line in their online store. The line includes two brand new cards conceptualized, illustrated, and engineered by Mary Beth Cryan.
“Light the candles” on this card throughout Hanukkah.

Hey, I recently saw a note card set that I illustrated of these cute little snails at my local Papyrus store! It was great to see it along with all of the other fabulous gift products they have. I love the boutique quality of their stores and products. So beautiful and inspirational.
