As much as I love color, black line art remains my favorite kind of art to do.

Or, similarly, art with a limited palette. A piece from another Kathleen Hegenberger book. I had a wonderful time with this one.

Being the Best Me book series

  This eight book series is written by Cheri Jorgensen Minors. Written with the inner voice of a young child speaking from the middle of tough and troubling or happy and proud moments.

 I have seen kids sit down and read through these and get utterly lost, and I know they are engaging to young kids. I like the idea of speaking about the inner life to children. Most of the time, illustrators have to come at that obliquely.

  

My Mimi Has WIngs

A cute little book by Kathleen Hegenberger, done in my spare time. An autobiography and message for her new grandson. Pleasure to work with.

Newt

Another finished page using watercolor and virtual chalk.

Mermaids in love...trying a new technique for fun.

I have always loved them. I also love water, and things that float under the surface.

New book....

Here is an artist at work....
