Happy book birthday to Broken Dolls! I was honored to draw the jacket illustration for Ally's third book and because AD David pretty much gives me free rein I took the chance to also illustrate Ally's author pic again, hehe. 👻

I went through my folders of personal art (most of it I don't share anymore) but I found this one I liked. A little b&w illu I did in my free time of a scene in The Whisperwicks 1, which I illustrated the french book cover for.

Here is some of my work:
