Doing research for one of my book ideas. I'm searching for images of trolls. Guess you could say that I'm TROLLING! Snort! Ah ha ha ha ha -- I slay myself. #Research #BookResearch #Trolls #Trolling #kidlit

Ella & Bruna are two young gnomes. They are the best of friends, but still have a jolly good argument every now & then. They love to go outside when the first snow falls, & dance around, singing and laughing as the flakes fall. #Gnome #Gnomes #kidlit #GnomeFriends #Snow #Winter #kidlitart

We've started watching Christmas movies early this year -- not sure exactly why, other than I'm itching to get into the Christmas mood. I can't really explain it, but the movie Krampus has quickly become one of my new fave Xmas films. It's riveting, is all I can say. #Krampus #ChristmasFilm #Xmas

I'm not a big reader of graphic novels. My one true love seems to be picture books. But this graphic novel of William Golding's Lord of the Flies is amazing. Adapted & illustrated by Aimee De Jongh, this GN is a true gem. Excellent storyboarding & illustration. #GraphicNovel #kidlit #kidlitart

There's been a light dusting of snow throughout the day so I'm posting one of my fox drawings to get into the winter mood. I'm wintering! #Fox #Foxes #Winter #Snow #Wintering #ColouredPencils

Meet Uno. He's one of the baby gnomes. Babies in the gnome community are lovingly cared for by their parents but they are also cared for by the great gnome community. Every gnome life matters. Love, care & kindness has always been the gnome way. #Gnome #Gnomes #BabyGnomes #GnomeCommunity

The world is a nightmare right now -- so why am I sketching character studies of gnomes? Because it makes me feel so good. It's good fun creating a whole community of gnomes -- their flaws & fine points, along with their talents and dreams. #Gnomes #Gnome #GnomeLife #GnomeFamily #kidlit #kidlitart
