From her blog:
I've been wanting to make a set of "Alphabet" crayons for a long time. I've always been drawn to illustrated alphabets. Maybe it's the Fontophile in me, but I find an extreme satisfaction in seeing a well made set of ABC's. I will have 26 sets of carved crayons as well as new carved pencils in an upcoming art show at Packer Schopf Gallery in Chicago. I will also be in Chicago for an artist talk, please come by and say hi!
