Out of the Closet

Here's a sketch for my new promo piece! Bit of a time crunch(as always) trying to get this piece done inbetween deadlines. Will post the final when it's done.

MB Artists Meets Facebook

My agency, MB Artists Inc, has started a new page on Facebook, www.facebook.com/mbartists. Come by and check it out! And if you feel inclined, give them a "like". Personally speaking, I always enjoy seeing what other illustrators are up to and this is a good way to stay connected to all the happenings of my MB Artists family.

A Dog's Life Indeed

Finally! My copies of A Dog's Life came today! And here to celebrate, is the star of the book, Chip.

                               ...Clearly, he's as ecstatic about his new found fame as I am!

Can We Call it a Remix?

I recently completed work on two new tittles, I Love You Mommy and I Love You Daddy. Only this time, things were a bit different, I was asked to illustrate books that had been previously published. Essentially I was updating these books and giving it more of a current look. So I did some snooping and to my surprise, I found out that these previous versions really weren't published that long ago, 2006 in fact. And so it got me thinking...in about 6-7 years, will someone come along and redo my versions?

Anyway, here are the old versions.

And here are mine.

All in the Print

I recently got this in the mail! I've worked on countless number of educational material similar to this through the years but it's actually the first time a client was nice enough to send me a copy. Honestly, outside of my picture books, I only have a vague idea where my illustrations actually end up, so it's always exciting to see your work in print!

Here is my contribution to the book. It's a story called the Heron and the Hummingbird.
