Cover for the baby bath book "veo, veo, un submarino", surrounded by a lot of marine animals like a killer whale, a turtle and an octopus... Illustration for a pumpkin cream soup with crispy artichokes recipe. The illustration has an illustrated frame showing the ingredients and some of the utensils needed for the recipe. Inside, we can see a garden where a badger, a dormouse, and an owl are collecting the necessary ingredients for the recipe. Vector illustration of two barn owls: A mother and her child flying in a starry purple night. "Jordina, The botanic dragon" is a cute vectorial illustration made with illustrator to celebrate "Sant Jordi", a popular festival from Catalonia, where every April 24 people traditionally give their loved ones a book and a rose. The illustration features a dragon reading a book and two cats.

I am currently eating cheese and drinking coffee. There is a looming set of revisions waiting for me. So I think I’ll pour another cup. #kidlit check in.

It's Monday #kidlit check-in time. I'm working on a mag assignment and prepping for the Warwick book festival next Sunday. I've been TERRIBLE about playing in my sketchbook, so I'd like to commit to a daily practice again. How about you?

THIS! This is why I draw on Manila envelopes. Nothing too precious.
denisillustrates.bsky.social Denis Angelov @denisillustrates.bsky.social · Sep 14
For me, the best sketchbooks are always the cheapest ones you can get your hands on. I don't want to feel precious about drawing in them. I don't want to be careful about what I draw in them. I want to be able to mess up, shrug, and move on the next page. 🤷‍♂️
