Preparing for Winter – Illustrated Bookmark
Beneath a glowing harvest moon, a little squirrel sits proudly atop a toadstool throne, clutching an acorn like a jewel. Below, two hedgehogs bustle through fallen leaves, gathering nature’s treasures in the hush of the evening. Preparing for Winter captures the gentle rhythm of autumn — a season of gathering, storing, and slowing down.
A cozy companion for fall novels, forest folk tales, and all those treasured stories you return to when the days grow shorter.

I’m Iris Esther, an illustrator and mother of two, creating illustrated art, art prints, postcards, and small paper goods from my forest-side home studio. With a green birdhouse in the first tree outside my window, I work guided by nature, fairytales, changing seasons and by a deep love for making art by hand.
Growing up, being outside wasn’t a destination but a way of living. My art grew from that same gentle rhythm.
My illustrations are made to quietly support everyday life — bringing a sense of enchantment to family celebrations, seasonal rituals, and small moments that matter.
