Educational Readers

Well, I finished all 32 or so sketches for the 2 educational readers I'm illustrating and I got them emailed off so I'm waiting for client approval. One is for Harcourt and the agent on that one called me this morning saying she liked the sketches and wants me to do another reader for 1st grade. Yea! Here are 2 sketches...one from each book.

    Exactly! You are the person that brings their ideas/specs to fruition and makes it pleasant and unique. That is artistic in my book!

    Glad you got them all done. I showed my class the drawings that I drew for your cute little girl. They were impressed. They really liked the outline of her hand.

    Kactiguy,My husband says we should've had you autograph those and should've taken them home so we could say we knew you when.... you know, before you win the Caldecott and become rich and famous.
