Sketch of grumpy Nick Otter

This is Nick, a grumpy otter.
I left room for text in the sky on the left side and above Nick's head on the right.

Meet the Main Characters

I would like to introduce Nola Star and her father.

I'm going to be posting some of my sketches for the book when ever I have some extra time. My main reason for doing this is to get some feed back from the people who read this blog. In addition to illustrating this book, I'm also designing it. Since I'm not working with anyone other than the author, I think it would be good to hear what other people think. These sketches aren't final so I can still make improvements.

It's official...

I just signed a contract to illustrate my first children's book. It's called Painted Problems by Ann Cooney. It looks like it's going to be a great project with a lot of potential. The deadline is pretty tight and I have a lot of work to do, but I'm excited about it. I think I can make a really cool children's book.
