Happy summer, everyone!

Clubs In My Bag

My newest picture book, "The Clubs in my Bag" has been released by The Littlest Golfer!  I just got my copies in the mail the other day, and my daughter has taken to carrying the book around the house.  She loves the little turtles.  If you are interested in purchasing a copy for your little golfer, just click the image below.  Enjoy!

MB Artists Family Catalog

My agency just put out its newest promotional catalog.  The theme for this one was "Family".  Hope you all enjoy all of the great pieces by the amazing MB Artist illustrators.  I love being a part of this talented group!

Katie Kate Explains Epilepsy

It's been a busy spring!  In addition to working on a the covers for a new book series for ZonderKidz,  I just wrapped up the last book in the Katie Kate series, "The Great Katie Kate Explains Epilespy."  Here is a sneak peak of the cover art for this latest title.



I have several other picture books in the works for this summer as well, and will be wrapping up one of them later this month.  Stay tuned for some more sneak peaks!  Happy Summer!

Promotional Postcards

Hi everyone!  Fellow illustrator Kristi Valiant (who has an adorable book about dancing penguins coming out later this year; everyone go preorder it) has a very informative blog post on promotional postcards for illustrators (you know, the ones you make and send out to art directors several times a yaer hoping that someone says "YES!  I love his/her work and have the perfect project for this art style!")  In any case, I wanted to share this post with you, because it is a great resourse for illustrators who are promoting themselves, their artwork, or their upcoming books.

The Monsters Come Out At Night

My agency puts out a quarterly catalog featuring all of the artists in our group, and each catalog has a theme.  The second catalog of the year has the theme "Family", and I decided to take a slightly darker view of the subject than would be "typical" for the children's market, but is nonetheless very real for many children.

Fairy Tales

MB Artists, the amazing artist agency that I belong to, has released a promotional catalog with the theme "Fairy Tales".  Each artist contributed a piece of artwork with that theme. There are so many great illustrations!
