Illustration depicting an autumnal scene, showing a garden surrounded by other flats and houses. Growing in the middle of the garden is an apple tree which branches connect all neighbours who can be seen in all the little windows surrounding the tree. There is no fruit on the tree, only yellow leaves. Some of the characters that can be seen in the windows include a mum reading to her baby by a candle, a grandma and grandchild sharing a warm drink and a person calling their cat, which can be seen walking on the right wall of the garden. In the garden, a girl is carrying a giant orange pumpkin and an older woman on the left is passing some jam over to her neighbours above with the use of a basket and rope. A lively illustration showing the spirit of community and sharing.

Hi #KidLitArtPostcard day, I’m Mike and I love creating fun, character-driven work, spooky or no.
I'm repped by @vickyweberbooks.bsky.social and I'm especially looking for middle grade cover work.

In a dark nighttime hallway with huge arched windows, a girl and a werewolf (also a girl) are sneaking around. Both are wearing school uniforms, although the werewolf's has ripped a bit from her transformation. She has just knocked over a small table and broken a vase and the girl is shushing her. Through one of the large windows, we see more school buildings and a full moon. The text on the bottom reds "Michael Dashow, mdashow-kidlitart.carrd.co, repped by Vicky Weber @ CMA."

An illustration featuring three panels. The first panel is of an angry blue bird looking under a rock and saying "Nothing." The second panel is the same bird looking in the grass with a magnifying glass and saying "Nothing!" The third panel is the largest and is a bird's eye view of a park and the same bird showing "NOTHING!!!" in large, red, shouty letters. An illustration of an orange cat in an astronaut suit and floating in space. He is looking happily at three constellations of a fish, a mouse, and a ball of yarn. An illustration of a boy and ghost looking fearfully at one another. The boy is reading a book called "Ghost Stories" and the ghost is reading a book called "Human Stories." The illustration uses a limited palette of blue, dark blue, and white. A black and white pencil illustration of a young girl in an oversized, itchy sweater. She is growing increasingly agitated at the itchiness and trying but failing to take the sweater off.
