Crisp mornings. 🤍🤍
I know fall doesn’t “officially” start (in the N hemisphere) for another week, but as the acorns continue to tumble down our roof, I can’t help but declare it’s already here! 🤗 Getting all my sweaters and beanies out.
How are you preparing?

What’s eating your strawberries? It might not be what you think…. Garden hobgoblins, anyone?

An example of my second round of paneling as I work on my graphic novel pitch. Red pencils for panels and some art “gestures”, blue notes are art guides, and black is script/dialogue. I sketch alternative panel layouts to the side and make general notes in the margins. #graphicnovel

Picked up The Anxious Generation and it’s quite illuminating for our relationship with technology and how it’s shaping childhood (in detrimental ways). Highly recommend and I’m only just beginning it! #anxiousgeneration #technology

Been studying graphic novel page and frame progressions by copying the variations down for some books I own. I love how different they have been so far, yet they all get us to understand a story. #graphicnovel #illustrator

I’ve been working on exploring new styles lately (linework and simplified color to go with the graphic novel I’m developing) and it’s been an interesting process. I redid the color on this 3 times bc I’m trying to evaluate my own process in relation to the outcome. #graphicnovelart #illustration

“From the Pages” prompt for my agent - kids imagining themselves as famous book characters. I wanted to explore technique and had fun using more line-work.
