Happy #KidLitArtPostcard!

A mock picture book cover for an imaginary title: Summer Camp at Midnight. What if the real camp adventure began after everyone was asleep?

Open for illustration work. If we'd be a good fit, my website has my contact info. Cheers!

Thank you to @ginaperry.bsky.social for this amazing event ✨
It has been such a great motivator for me to make new pieces, and it's great to see everyone's lovely art.

This is me as a kid in one of my all-time favorite costumes 🦋.

Illustration by Gina Perry for KidLitArtPostcard's 5th Anniversary "You, as a Kid" theme. A little girl wearing overalls and skinny braids sits barefoot by a fence, grape leaves, rhubarb, strawberries, lily of the valley, a puddle, and a fence. She's playing with cars but looking in awe at a small green and gold dragon. The dragon is watching a little yellow worm.

#KidLitArtPostcard is turning 5! Love this month’s theme: You, as a kid. When I was little, I adored pig soft toys. The problem was, they were surprisingly hard to find. Toy shops were full of teddy bears and dolls. Eventually, I was given my first own piggy, and it stayed with me for many years!
