Inktober: Witch Casting Spell

Witch Casting a Spell

Inktober #15

I’m sure he deserved it.

Inktober: Zombie Children

Zombie Children

Inktober #7
So… I was trying zombies again.  This time I was going for cute.  Not sure if zombies can actually be cute.  But the girl does look happy, at least.

Inktober: Ghost

Ghost

Inktober #6.

I think maybe this ghost isn’t quite as scary as it thinks it is.

New Coloring Page

I put up a new coloring page in my Freebies section.  I pulled all the colors and shading out of that monkey I made for Katie earlier this year and put that up as a coloring sheet.  I think it turned out pretty good.  Click to open the full-sized PDF.

A Summer Sketch – In Color 2

Here’s more of a finished color version.  Okay, I’m done playing with this one.  On to something else…

Girl in a Swimsuit

Boy Reading Published in SCBWI

So, I received my copy of the SCBWI Bulletin in the mail yesterday and I found out which of my images they picked to publish. Turns out it’s Boy Reading, an image I sent them in May of 2012. Yay!  So, when they say they hang onto artwork to use later, they really aren’t kidding! smiley 15

Katie’s Monkey

Here’s a work in progress for a personal project I’m working on. My daughter wanted a poster of a monkey swinging by its tail from a tree with a banana. I’ve just about got the monkey done, next to tackle the scenery.  I’m working in Illustrator because I’m not sure how big she’s going to want me to print it.  Vector graphics are infinitely scaleable, unlike raster art.  Monkey for Katie

Last Page!

And I’m done!

Here’s the last page of my current picture book project.  This is the “The End” page.

The latest spread from my current picture book commission.  I hope I made the white turkey look suitably soft and fluffy.  🙂

I only have one more image to go.  This has been such a fun project to work on!
