This has been a busy spring. I just launched my latest children’s picture book, If Bugs Were My Friends. You can find more information in my Shop Section.

I am currently working on two illustration projects for local writers. Both projects are quite involved with 12 to 20 illustrations plus book covers. The process is fun and I always love what I learn when I am working on freelance projects.

I am also involved in The 100 Day Project on Instagram. The project is a commitment to work on a single theme project each day for 100 days. I have committed to drawing, sketching, and studying eyes for 100 days. The project is now on Day 25. I am primarily sketching on my iPad using the Procreate software. Some of my studies are simple line sketches to study the shape of a single eye. Others are more complex studies in color of the area of a face which includes the eyes. I even have a couple of “cartoon” style eyes.

Besides all of this I am working in clay to build an inventory of fairy garden houses for my new etsy shop: http://TheEdgewaterShop.etsy.com. Come take a look and let me know what you think!

Yes, it has been a very busy spring!
