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.

the digital process continues...

I am very fortunate to have a large family. My cousin is quite gifted in the ways of graphic art. He has been sending my links to help educate me in the ways of digital illustration. My education has begun. Sketch daily and often is the advice that was given to me by an amazing artist. His words inspire me still 
Here is another snowman that I created today. I started off in one direction and ended up somewhere completely different. I did a layering of snowflakes along with the snow. During my critique, i was encouraged to try my illustrations from different angles. I will admit that I am very tired after working on this. The advantage to this digital style is that I am able to use brighter colors with a far less mess. :) Here is the piece I put together today.
