Sick

So I have been sick the past week to the point that I didn't even pick up a pencil or brush or pen for 4 or five days. It is frustrating when even going one day without working on something so a week was bad enough. I did this illustration to commemorate my sore throat and tiredness. I don't want to do THAT again!

A New Postcard

The previous postcards that I have been sending have been nice, but I think will pop most nicely. It's simple and focuses on my two characters. I call them "Larry Beary" and "Mary." It's fun writing THAT over and over again. Larry Beary and Mary Larry Beary and Mary Larry Beary and Mary!

Let me first say this. I don't know how long I've had this epson photo scanner, but it took me that long to figure out how to get a clean scan without all that horrible white filling up my work. Now my whites are whites and blacks are blacks and that's before it goes into Photoshop! True, the light washes are kinda blotchy, but it's something I can fine tune on my work easily.....

So it's also been a while since I have posted. Therefore, I have lots of new stuff to share. Mostly, it's just a sneek peak of what I am working on.

First are the character sheets for my GN.

Then a spread from a new picture book I am concocting. I am rather proud of this spread even if this tree branch doesn't physcially exist!

So I am pleased with how things are going so far.
