Sketchy Sketch!

There's been a whole lot of posts about other folks. Time to throw up a sketch of my own!! Goshdarnit!
This is a character I'd done prematurely. I like him and want to use him on some activity sheets. So I claim him back.
I'll throw him in a skate park or something of that nature later for an activity sheet. Stay Tuned!!

Speaking of Activity Sheets here is the Final Version of the Calvin one. No words won but I did add start and finish. Holla!!

Wisdom Wednesday-Lynne Chapman

This is a very inspiring series of videos from Lynne Chapman where she goes through her Creation Process and how she got into doing Childrens Books. With the economy being what it is we all need as much hope and inspiration as we can find. Lynne supplies that in spades! I'll post one of the video every Wednesday! If you don't want to wait follow the link on the video to see the other four she has done. Also check out here website and blog!!

Illustration Board-Free Promotion!! Just Do It!

I just joined Illustration Board as a form of promotion. It's free and hosts a wonderful set of Illustrators. I say you always take every opportunity you can get to promote yourself, especially if it's free. You never know who may run across you!!

They also have a page on Facebook.

I won! Happy New Year!!

I'm a fan of the Illustration pages website, blog and facebook page. Recently they had a contest promoting the relatively new Storybook Illustrators website. Storybook Illustrators works in a similar fashion to ChildrensIllustrators.com. The contest prize was a one year free subscription and portfolio on the site.

I won!!!

So, as of today I have uploaded my portfolio and bio to the site. I will continue to upload more and diversify as my projects for the next year continue to be published and promoted.

Happy New Year!!
