Folktale Week day 6: Storm.

The charm cast, they pulled the storm of sound and sorrow in.

(My body chose the worst week to get sick! I'm behind, but determined to see it through. One more to go...)

Folktale Week day 5: Charm.

Struggling to be heard above the chaos, the charm is cast.

Folktale Week day 4: Book

Cacophonous echoes still ringing, they opened the book.

(Sick yesterday, so skipped day 3!)

Folktale Week day 2: Echo

A banshee-like spirit of those lost on the mountain, doomed to hear nothing but tho echo of their own cries.

Folktale Week day 1: Night

(experimenting with a rough, woodcut-ish texture for this week’s challenge!)

I’ve never really a “bucket list” person, but seeing the northern lights was consistently the only thing that came to mind when someone asked me. After tonight, I can now confidently say it’s worth a bucket list status. I could never get tired of seeing this.

Hi Brian! Thank you for this opportunity - my latest middle grade illustration job featured a bat and I’d love to work on a batty picture book!

Happy Halloween! I’ll be late with the one I had planned for this year, but here’s one of my favorites from years before - with a wish that we all find some kindred spirits this year.

My illustration for this week's #ABLAArtFest prompt: Chats by the Cauldron (though chats *in* the cauldron might be more appropriate)

Everyone knows frogs are the biggest gossips. 🐸

Trapped in a crystal ball by a ghost!
A little late, but combining 2 prompts for #ABLAArtFest - "Ghostly Encounters" and "The Crystal Ball Reveals…." for something that you might find on a #mgbook cover. 🔮

I didn't find out about #dogust until it was a bit late in the month...but until next year here are a couple good boys/girls I sketched a while ago that still make me happy (like all dogs do)

Casual reading. 📚

Anything digging into anything good lately? I want to hear about it!
