kidlit illustration with two fairies. One of them is carrying a big pink pencil, while the other one is on top of the pencil, pointing at something outside of the picture. They're dressed with leaves.

Happy #kidlitartpostcard Day!

This month's postcard is inspired by the artists of ancient history. Besides art, history was my favorite subject in school. I was alway fascinated by how much art can tell us about history.

Picture book illustration of a collection of snow globes for sale in a festive shop window. Wintery colour palette of blues, teals and greens depicts a snowy backdrop with evergreens. A central snow globe contains a tiny mouse with a sleigh, on its way into a Christmas tree farm to choose his tree.

Merry December! It’s the last #kidlitartpostcard of the year, so I thought I’d send the year out in style with this posh little caroling quartet. I’m on the lookout for new projects in both PB and MG. Portfolio kirstenmcgonigal.com

Cozy Children’s Book style illustration showing 2 mice, a hedgehog, and a mole Christmas caroling at night in a winter, snow covered forest. They are caroling at the home of 3 chipmunks. The chipmunks live in a big tree with a door and glowing windows in the trunk. A mother chipmunk stands in the doorway with light spilling out through the open door. 2 little chipmunks, a boy and a girl, peep out through an upstairs window. The little boy chipmunk is waving excitedly to the carolers below, and the little girl chipmunk is clasping her paws in delight. The ground and bushes are covered with snow. Once of the mouse carolers is standing a bit in front of the others, mouth wide open in song with his hand gesturing dramatically.

When my partner saw my previous #kidlitartpostcard he challenged me to make a forward-facing version. So here it is!

I love illustrating busy scenes, vibrant colours and silly animals ❤️

An illustration of a child with a bunch of birds facing forward. Birds include a Major Mitchell Cockatoo, a blue footed Booby and a Barn Owl. The boy still has his net for some reason, and there are still no insects to be found.

And second prompt of #Folktaleweek2025

Echo

Ari and the others meet again in a hollow tree,
motes of light follow a path through it.

Curiosity springs out of Ari’s ears,
an echo ripples through them

What can it be?

Hello #kidlitartpostcard 🌞

This card is a tribute to the bright pink rubber sandals from my childhood; they were perfect for playing around the rockpools.

By the way, rocks are one of my favourite things to draw 😊

#kidlit #kidlitart #picturebooks #nonfictionillustration #rockpools #summermemories
Alt: Brown girl sitting on the rocks, by a tidal pool, looking a bit unsure at an orange crab that is pointing its claw at her. She has her feet inside the water and is wearing a red two-piece swimsuit and bright pink water shoes.
