The Children Book Illustrators Guild (CBIG) put on an event called "Smiles for Sandy Hook" where we invited local kids and adults to come on and create art for the children of Sandy Hook school in CT. Hopefully, the art that created will lift their spirits. Here's an image of some of the art. Scott and Shawn of CBIG deserve kudos for planning this in only a week.

Here's the last illustration of a book I'm working on called Elephant and the Mouse. The art covers both the left and right page and is the last two pages of the book. Now all I need to do is most of the other illustrations... I wanted to start with the hardest one to get the look down and I hope to get the book done in time (and self published) in time for the Scott County Art Crawl in early Oct.

Time Moving Forward

Here's last weeks submission to Illustration Friday but, I was unable to post it in time so, here it is. The word of the week was 'Forward'.
