After moving to Key West, getting married, and starting a new chapter of life in the sunny Florida isle, she rediscovered this passion and talent. It came to be at once therapeutic and relaxing. As her friendship with author Maura Weis grew out of Marce's genuine love and obsession with Golden retrievers through various social media groups and platforms, she eventually began managing a fun Facebook page about Maura's real-life dog George. Together they came up with the plan and idea of developing George into an adventurous and mischievous children's book character. Marce's watercolors and digital art populate the pages of the Grumpy George series with a fun and playful style that matches both her own personality and the tone of the book.
