This is my journey in creating concepts, writing, illustrating, finding a literary agent, and becoming a published children's book author and illustrator for the picture book genre.

a sketching I will go....

Illustrating is a long process. Lots of circles, lines, triangles, and other shapes are drawn and erased. Then, i draw over it and start creating the shape. This pic is far from done, but here we can see Andy going a different way than the other ants. Andy gets lost and friends will help him find his way.


Andy the Ant picks up around
Little leaves that fall on the ground.
He is small and strong
And marches all wrong.
Hey, Andy! You are going the wrong way.
Stop. You are lost. Can you find home today?


Andy has a couple woodland friends. Meet Andy, Lilly, and Benny.
