Sandra & Karen are designers by day and illustrators, cafe seekers, city explorers and kids at heart pretty much anytime. We have hearts for reading and making children's books and want to share our craft with kids of all ages.

Our love of reading to kids (and Reading to Kids - the non-profit) and getting lost in children's books led to a shared dream: to make a children's book of our own.

"Marvin & Mollie" came to life over 1.5 years in coffee shops, tea houses, lounge chairs and drawing boards (did we mention we love exploring?). Our process was primarily analog using pencil, ink and watercolor and lots of love and labor.

We then made paper and cute products inspired by the characters in the book.
