Poems in Threepenny Review, New Ohio Review, Poet Lore. My name is Maria, but it is pronounced Mariah which was the first trick my parents played on me.
We are moving and Henry found this little bell I can use when I am ready for him to bring me my coffee. 💕
Last day of #FoltaleWeek2024 “blossom” And they lived happily ever after. #folktaleweekblossom #KidLitArt #folktaleWeek #tarot
Day 5 of @folktaleweek.bsky.social "Depth". Below is my wolf eating Grandma Riding Hood vs my wolf model, Sally, winning tug of war. #folktaleweek #folktaleweek2024 #folktaleweekdepth #kidlitart #tarot #illustration
Day 4 of @folktaleweek.bsky.social is "Trail". For this one I wanted to reference The Fool in the tarot. #FolkTaleWeek2024 #FolktaleWeekTrail #FolktaleWeek #kidlitart #tarot
Day 1 of @folktaleweek.bsky.social "Mist" I have been going through a tarot phase lately. I bought my deck innocently enough, thinking I would use it for poetry prompts. #folktaleweek #folktaleweekmist (1/3)
I'm a folktale girly and I like to draw so I have no choice but to do #FolkTaleWeek2024. Sometimes it helps to have a prompt and a deadline. Like when you are having a hard time focusing after the election. This is a drawing I did of The Handsome Prince.
I still need all of this stuff. Look at this collage wallet I made out of tape when I was in 6th grade. That's me and my bf Josh Hartnett. Those are my Reading Renaissance points hanging off my nametag. The Ask Jeeves logo.
This is my poem in the New Ohio Review. Its about victim blaming, gaslighting, being polite.
Have you ever been a little rat like me? Proud to have a poem in Poet Lore.
Hello #portfolioday. I am a poet and watercolor painter. I have been working on some picture books for the last couple of years, and this is the year I will finally start submitting them...right?! My favorite things to draw are fingernails and pink noses.
Something pink for #kidlitartpostcard day. I am poet venturing into the kid lit world. Some of my illustrations are on my website mariasprogress.com
I'm new here. Thanks @brianlarossa.com for the invite. This is my first #portfolioday. But just in the nick of time, Cinderella came in and saved the handsome prince from her evil stepsisters whose feet were honestly way too big. Like it was weird how big they were.
