Misc Mondays


Here's a page from a children's book I illustrated for a fledgling author named Windy Mountain, whose website can be found at, http://abigailblue.net/

I had a lot of fun illustrating this book. As novelist and filmmaker Nicholas Meyer said, "art thrives on restrictions," and this is actually a great example as I initially had more of a yellow/orange background until she said she wanted more white, and when I changed it, I also changed the color of the sofa to blue just because I thought it looked better, and ultimately, I like the "new" color scheme I came up with much better than what I had.

Whatever the fate of the book, in terms of where it gets published and so-forth, I'm not posting the whole thing because, well, I want people to buy it.
