When I moved to East Falls in 2021, I fell in love with Osmond Street, a charming one block long street around the corner from my apartment. So, I did a little drawing of it with me in it to elicit the feelings I felt at that time. Little did I know it would be picked up by The Local, an East Falls newspaper to be their cover illustration! I also didn't yet know that I would soon be attending salons with new friends and neighbors on that street. The inhabitants of Osmond Street are what makes in special ~ everyone from the people to the trees to the flowers and the stones! Three years later, I am now established as an "honorary member" of the Osmond Street gang ;D
