Standing Up to the Bullies – Image 1
I’ve been quiet here lately because I’ve been working on a picture book. Learning A-Z commissioned me through Storybook Arts to illustrate a graded reader titled Standing Up to the Bullies, written by Ashley Kazery. I just finished the last image this afternoon. I’ll probably have a few minor edits before publication, but I’m more-or-less finished.

Boy in Front of Fan
So, at one point this summer, when the temperatures were in the 90’s, our air conditioning went out. I started on the sketch for this on that evening. My window fans aren’t as good as A/C, but they’re a million times better than nothing. So much better. 🙂
The Underground Railroad
Here’s a new illustration commissioned by United Methodist Publishing House. I think it’s going in a kid’s history textbook. It’s supposed to show black slaves hiding and sneaking, and sometimes being smuggled north out of slavery before the civil war. I was given very specific elements that I needed to include in the picture, and it was quite a task to fit it all in. I’m rather proud I managed it.
Character Sketch – Hitch 2
Here’s Hitch, the bully in the anti-bullying book I’m starting work on for Learning A-Z. This is the second version where he’s in regular clothes and blonde.
