Been so busy creating and prepping for school & book events (and doing life) that I missed the last #kidlitartpostcard day… Here is a kidlit adjacent post of new & revised illustrated icons for self-promotional banners and such! #illustratedicons #iconillustration #kidlit #childrensillustrations

As an illustrator I also do children’s books and projects aimed at younger adults - not all dark stuff 😅

And yes, it is super jarring keeping all of these different art styles in one head, thanks for asking 💚

Been writing, and - spring cleaning! I still hold dear my old, worn-down Richard Scarry books from childhood.

Layer by layer on day three—letting watercolor teach me patience as this piece slowly comes to life. Halfway done, and yes… the text box still has its cozy little spot 😁
