I created this paper cat doll craft for OOLY and here’s what they wrote about it:

“😻We’ve got a purr-fect craft for you. You’ve got to check this cat paper doll craft out right meow!  Don Gato Paper Cat Project 😺 “

Music Lesson 🎼

Amadeus Armadillo

 #colour_collective  the weekly twitter color prompt is a huge help and inspiration for me. The main character of one of my stories is Amadeus Armadillo, and his trademark is a shocking pink sweater with his initial “A” stitched on in gold. So I was happy to feature him for the shocking pink color prompt this week. I’m also thinking I need to write the next draft of his story.

Wild!

Here’s my submission for the August SCBWI “Draw This” challenge.

Experimenting for #colour_collective

Castle, characters, illustration, Medieval Times, Picture Books, snails

The #colour_collective prompt this week was lava, so here are my snails living in a lava-colored castle and dining on their favorite marsh grass & moat slime. Big thanks to Patricia Keeler  and Aram Kim for photoshop pointers 💛 …and I have to keep trying and experimenting!

April Surprise!

The #scbwidrawthis prompt word for April was “surprise”.  Here is Señor Don Gato as a pull toy….

Lady & Dragon

I was looking at the Unicorn tapestry again and thought that maybe the lady would like to have a pet dragon instead of a unicorn. Thanks again to #colour_collective for the color inspirations: Clover Green for the left and Blue Bell for the right.

Glad that SCBWI started up their monthly illustrator prompt #scbwidrawthis for 2017! For this month, the word was love.
