Revisiting an old digital illustration to see if I can redo it fully in watercolor! A quick little study to make myself a little less nervous. #watercolor #kidlitart #snow #winterwoods #sketchbook #wip

I had some leftover watercolor paper and I wanted to do something kind of mindless. Filling up a page in my sketchbook. #watercolor #collage

I did it! I competed an entire 36 page picture book in watercolor! My first time doing a book with traditional media. It was a slog, but I am much happier with how it turned out. I’m going to be showing more of the process and final art soon!

If you’re not inserting yourself or friends/family members/pets into your illustrations, are you even making art at all? In all seriousness, we illustrators need to have some cheeky fun in our books once in a while. Any guesses as to who these fairies are? #illustration #kidlitart #fairies

All the tiny beautiful things sprouting up in my woods. It’s not really my woods. But I watch over it. #wildflowers #spring
