I’ve been asked to illustrate a kids story book.  This is completely new and exciting for me.  It all started by showing the author examples of my sketching, small paintings I’ve done that represent my style.  Since she liked my style, I offered to mock some of the characters in her story and see if she likes what I come up with.  Today, I showed her some sketches of the characters.  Now that I am home, I’m going to start “painting” some bigger scenes.  I use the quotes for painting because I’m not sure if I am going to use paint… to me, a painting is simply a finished drawing.  It can be in any media, which differs from the usual understanding of painting.  My paintings usually include multiple media, not just one.  Who knows with the illustration though… here I go!  Stay tuned for pictures.
