What’s the Story?

For as long as I can remember, I’ve tried to create images that tell a story. My parents remind me from…

  • **Update** I’ll be working on a story with these two, for those asking. If you share this image, please give credit. Now I must disappear for a bit to focus on deadlines. Thank you for the feedback! #procreate #ipadproart
  • Some of you may recall that I was working on a medieval-themed story that I hoped to see on shelves one day. Well, I’m pleased to share that the story is finished, and it is currently out in that big bad world trying to find a home. Im very proud of the story, and I hope to share it with you all someday and somehow down the road. Until then, enjoy this favorite moment between the story’s main characters, and wish the book (and my agent) luck if you have a prayer to spare. 😉👍 #childrensbooks #picturebooks #childrensillustration
  • It’s time for #artvsartist or is it #artvsartist2019 ? 2018 was character-building to say the least. I’m not sure what the future holds, but I’m grateful for the people who believe in and support me and my work, and I’m eager to both explore and share the styles and stories that inspire me to do what I do. 🙂👍 thanks to @jdzphotography for my author photo. Check out his work, you may recognize some faces 😉
  • **Update: I’m developing a story around this woodworker, for those asking** I found a window to explore a more solemn subject. It felt good to get it out of my head, even if it didn’t go exactly as planned. There’s no story beyond the image, unless of course you imagine one for yourself. 🙂 #procreate #ipadpro
  • I’ve been sketching almost non-stop for some exciting projects that must remain secret for now [insert heavy sigh here], but I took a little time for me tonight to add some color to this old sketch, test a new technique, and recharge my creative batteries. I hope everyone had a good weekend! 🙂👍 #childrensbooks #picturebooks #childrensillustration #madewithprocreate #ipadproart
  • An oldie, and one of my first @procreate doodles 🙂 #tbt #childrensillustration #madewithprocreate #ipadproart
  • You never know what doors will open from a quick sketch—like this one, which has led to my first project in which I’ve been tasked with scaring my audience. Excited about this one... 👻💀😱#childrensillustration #madewithprocreate #ipadproart #spookyart
  • Thank you to @lagaleriaroja and the inspiring authors / illustrators for making my first workshop and trip to Spain one to remember. Big thanks to @agreda for navigating me through the the streets of Seville (his work is incredible, btw, check it out!). Until next time it’s time for 🛫 and 😴
  • I was sketching last night and realized my illustration workshop in Seville, Spain is right around the corner (nervous but excited!) Anyone from or been to Seville? Any recommendations of things to see, eat, smell, look at, stare at, avoid, etc? #childrensillustration #kidlitart
