Taking a Winter Break!

Hi, it's Dorothy! I'm working on a few things with the Dorybird site, and pausing for a short winter's rest! I'll be back sometime in January 2025 with my drawing and illustration, fine art prints, and soon a new children's book!

Sewing is now a side quest, so you'll still find handmade sewn goodies here (mostly bags) -- just less often. :)

But until then, don't worry . . .

Thanks for visiting, and be sure to join my list!

Dorybird is the portfolio and art shop of artist author illustrator Dorothy Tully! I write and draw children's books, make fine art prints of cute animals, fantasy fairies, and nature, and create original illustrations. Plus I love gardening, and sewing handmade bags and mini quilts!
