Hi, I’m BK, a creative grandmother, artist, and author living a peaceful, joy-filled life in the countryside. I’m also a retired wife, mom, and proud grandma who spent years working as a Professional Accountant and even ran a stained-glass business back in the day. Now, I’ve fully embraced my passion for creativity and storytelling.
These days, you’ll find me exploring all kinds of projects as a creative grandmother, artist, author and blog writer. I love digital design, photography, and writing. I’ve created everything from children’s storybooks to journals and puzzles that help keep our minds sharp as we age. I wrote a sweet adventure storybook called Playtime in the Forest With Friends for little ones, and I’ve also put together fun coloring books for kids and memory-boosting puzzles and journals for seniors.
Crafting has always had a special place in my heart: sewing, DIY projects, and more. Some of my digital designs are available on items in my Etsy shop: bkdesignsbooksnmore.etsy.com. My husband and I also run a little pop-up store called New Dawn Trading Company (Facebook link), where you’ll find our homemade jewelry, leather journals and bags, rustic home décor, photography, and digital art. It’s just another way we get to share what we love, with me embracing my role as a creative grandmother, artist, and author.
I also write under the pen name Marie Faye Compton, a little tribute to my mom, whose loving, independent spirit has always inspired me. I’ve got a few novels in the works under that name—hope to bring those to you soon!
Introduce your little one to the magic of friendship, sharing, and the beauty of nature with Playtime in the Forest with Friends. Follow a playful group of animal pals—a curious deer, a kind chipmunk, a wise turtle, a happy rabbit, and a joyful frog—as they embark on a delightful adventure through the forest.
