Coloring Contest!
Starting today and ending June 22nd, I am having a coloring contest for my picture book, Lemur Troops & Critter Groups. The contest is open to children 10 and under. All you have to do is copy the sheet above and give to a child to color. Once the sheet has been colored, scan it and email it back to me and I will be posting them in a special slideshow and album.
Each child who enters will be put into a special drawing for a chance to win a book related prize. If for some reason you can't scan it, please contact me for a way to mail it in.
Enjoy!

Here Piggy, Piggy...
This little piggy was my doodle for today...
I am going to start trying to soften my illustration look...
I love my linework, but have found that a lot of jobs pass me by because it is too heavy for such soft looking characters.. I also want to toy around with making my digital work look more like a traditional method of painting or maybe even color pencil...
This was just something I did while on a break at the day job. It is done in Photoshop with a dry brush...
I like it for a quick sketch...
Oh, and I truly am sorry for not blogging here for a long time.
I am working diligently on a few projects that I am not allowed to talk about. And with holding a day job too, I don't have much time left over to do new art just for me...
Enjoy!

Wet Kitty
From the picture book Hello Potty. I truly enjoy drawing animals doing "human like" activities. Although we know a kitty wouldn't play in a wading pool, let alone wear a diaper, I love drawing scenes that make it look feasible.

Lemur Troops & Critter Groups
A drove of cattle wore bells that rattle.
A leash of foxes hid under boxes.
Hey all!!!
My second book, Lemur Troops & Critter Groups is now available for purchase on Amazon, Barnes & Noble.com and on the 4RV Publishing web sites.
The author, Rena Jones, has put together a series of rhyming sentences that introduce animal congregations to children. The illustrations take those silly sentences a step further and put the animals in humanistic scenarios and provide humor for children and adults.
Also, visit Rena or I on Facebook and join the Critter Series fan page!
