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 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 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 the scene with a few more leaves and the characters roughed in. I’ll adjust the placement a bit and work on the proportions a little. Need to figure out how to do the folds on the lower girl’s shirt. Then comes final lines and coloring. 
Making progress…
Something I’m working on at the moment.
My hair isn’t usually that curly, but it’s fun to draw curls.
