Here’s 4 of 4 images for page three of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. This page is showing four situations where you should call 911. This one shows a boy who has apparently drank poison. A bottle of cleaner is spilled on the floor and he’s doubled-over as if his stomach hurts.
Here’s 3 of 4 images for page three of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. This page is showing four situations where you should call 911. This one shows a girl trying to shake awake her grandfather who doesn’t seem able to wake up. He needs help!
Here’s 2 of 4 images for page three of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. This page is showing four situations where you should call 911. This one shows a crime happening. Someone’s just snatched that backpack from the woman on the trail.
This illustration was originally supposed to be a purse rather than a backpack, but they switched it to a backpack in the first round of revisions. For some reason I rather enjoy drawing backpacks. I always draw them as this leather-bottom Jansport kind like I had when I was in high school. 🙂
Here’s 1 of 4 images for page three of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. This page is showing four situations where you should call 911. This one shows the house fire from the cover. This raised ranch reminds me of the houses in my neighborhood.
Here’s an image for page two of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. A girl explains to her little brother that they live at 731 Fisher Road. The mailbox and house both have the numbers 731 on them and the street sign at the corner shows their street is called Fisher Road. The illustration shows how addresses work.
Here’s an image for page one of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. A bunch of kids playing safely in their front yards. I tried to include a couple of kids playing street hockey because my youngest is a hockey girl, but they didn’t want to encourage kids playing in the street. 😦 Oh well. So long as the client’s happy. 🙂
Here’s image 3 of 3 for the cover of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. A boy talking to a police officer in his neighborhood. Vehicles are hard for me, but I like how the police car turned out.
This is the last color image for this book.
Here’s image 2 of 3 for the cover of a safety-themed coloring book commissioned by Positive Promotions. Two girls crossing the street at a crosswalk when the light tells them it’s safe.
I just finished this new portfolio piece. It’s for my series of middle school kids starring that girl on the left there. (I should probably give her an actual name.) She’s grossing out a friend of hers by showing him her lunch.
I recently completed another coloring book for Positive Promotions. This one is about teaching safety to kids. I think it’s supposed to be handed out by the police and firefighters and such. It’s about when to call 911, anti-bullying, crossing the street safely, anti-drug… things like that.
The cover has three color images showing different safety situations. This first one shows a boy calling 911 for a house fire.
