In 2019 I’m hoping to illustrate 3 children’s books. Normally this would be an impossible task, but I have 3 solid ideas already, and sketches started for each story. I’ve been thinking about these 3 stories now for several months, and sometimes that process can take the longest.
This is a sketch for one of my books that I am working on. I feel like every illustrator at some point illustrates an alphabet book, well, this is mine. I’m very excited to include all of my nieces and nephews, and various other children of family members and friends as the photo references for the book.
Once I have more of a collection together for one book, I will choose a general color pallet. Every page will have a completely different subject, but the color will really help keep them together. I am using an iPad Pro, Apple Pencil, and Procreate. I have been using these tools and program for a few months and I’m learning something new every time I draw on it.
