New book alert! "Pressure" is a new coming of age book for modern tweens. It explores two conflicting voices fighting to be heard. This was a great project with lots of imagery to work with. Although there's only one environment, I had to work with each of the artifacts that appear in the background separately, like spotlights in a play. #childrensbookcover #childrensillustration #picturebook #illustrator #blackchildrensbooks 

My latest book review for Walker Books.

Bringing stories to life, one page at a time! ✨📖 Just wrapped up this magical illustration for a children’s book, where imagination knows no bounds, and every color tells a story. 🌈 From whimsical characters to vibrant scenes, it's all about sparking joy and curiosity in little readers' hearts. 🌟 #ChildrensBookIllustration #ImaginationUnleashed #StorytellingThroughArt #Illustration #KidsBooks #ArtistAtWork"

🖼️ Pictures are more powerful when paired with words. 👊🏻 "We can trace a straight historical line: the Book of Kells, intricate illustrations in an illuminated, hand-written manuscript; The Gutenberg Bible featured decorative initials and woodcut illustrations; and early newspapers, The London Gazette and The Pennsylvania Gazette—all made use of pictures between columns of type." Another paragraph I ❤️ hits the cutting room floor. 😢 (This was cut from my forthcoming book, Story Business. I am in the process of killing my darlings, so I am posting some of them here instead.)

It's been a while! Check out the cover for Jeff Wentzel's book "SO STRANGE", a collection of 96 bizarre (but true) stories. The book features accounts of weird science, the unexplained, bizarre people, unusual feats, and everything in between. Fun fact: the image featured on the cover is a collage I did about 10-odd years ago, when life was even weirder! .

My wife bought me the "642 Things To Draw" book, which I use as a daily illustration prompt. I aim to spend an hour on each illustration and post one daily. Today's entry: Burrito If you missed any of the daily illustrations and would like to view them in chronological order, or if you would like to see some more of my work, check out my website link in my bio. #642thingstodraw #dailyillustration
