Outside Your Window

SCBWI Winter Conference 2013

I'm psyched to have my artwork representing the upcoming SCBWI conference in New York! See you there?

This image was originally a going-away card for my friend and fellow artist Dave Kiersh who set off from Boston in search of adventure!

The Cat's Pajamas

Bedtime in Outer Space

SHHH!

The Hurtin' Kind O' Pain

This was my first sketch for the Somerville cowgirl picture

The Protector

No monster of the darkness dares to attack, held at bay by the eternal vigilance of Teddy.
Illustration Friday: Talisman

Most nights at the light house are actually pretty boring . . .

for Illustration Friday - "Legendary"

So I entered this Belle & Sebastian album cover design contest . . .

. . . and I didn't win, but I was one of the finalists. Oh, well . . . I have to admit that the winning design is pretty fun.

Stars & Cats Bounding With Inspiration

I went to the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators in NYC this past weekend. It was a lot of fun - heard lots of inspiring stories from authors, illustrators, and editors. If you met me or saw my work there, please say hello!

The stars at night are big and bright . . .

Happy Birthday Josh!

OK - actually, Josh's birthday was nearly a month ago, but this is the card I made for him.
This week's Illustration Friday theme is clandestine, which naturally brought to mind ninjas. And I thought "Hey, I drew a ninja recently." So here it is.

Voices

Another Seasonal Illustration Friday entry

This one's called "A Bunch of Animals Lookin' at a Firefly"

Halloween

So, I was away on Halloween this year, in sunny, warm, non-spooky Utah. I was imagining what the weather might be like back in Massachusetts, thinking about how some years it is So Cold on Halloween! It can kinda ruin your costume when you have to bundle up!
