SKETCHBOOK

THE DOLL PEOPLE SET SAIL

A couple of years ago I was asked to illustrate the 4th  book in Ann Martin and Laura Godwin's Doll People series. It was a great honor and after a lot of work it's finally here. I just got my first copy last week. Above is a shot of the cover and below are two of the interior images. The book will be available in about two weeks, I hope you will
give it a look.

SKETCHBOOK: THE LEAGUE OF SEVEN

Today I'm working on an exciting new character from ALAN GRATZ'S new League of Seven book. I'm having a lot of fun with this one.

SKETCHBOOK: GROUNDHOG'S DAY OFF

A sketch for a new picture book called GROUNDHOGS DAY OFF, by Robb Pearlman.

SKETCHBOOK: THE BLACK ARROW

Here are a few more sketches inspired by my reading of THE BLACK ARROW by Robert Louis Stevenson.

THE GRIMJINX REBELLION

Here's the cover for the THE GRIMJINX REBELLION by Brian Ferry. This is the third book in  THE VENGEKEEP PROPHECIES series. I really enjoyed these books. If you like good fantasy, give them a look.

SKETCHBOOK

This is a character sketch for a new book.

COVER ART

A few weeks ago I posted the cover art for "The Vengekeep Prophecies" by Brian farrey. Here is the cover for the second book in this series, "the Shadowhand Covenant". I have really enjoyed these books. I just got the manuscript for the third and I am looking forward to working on it.

COVER ART

I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in a few days, I've been without a computer (I spilled a Coke on my laptop). I know, not too smart. Anyway, this is the cover art from The Vengekeep Prophecies. This is the first in a series of three. I really enjoyed this book.

Below I've added a simple color sketch for this painting.

I don't always make a color sketch, but when I do I just print the sketch on card stock and color it with pastels. I don't spend much time with it, just enough to make sure what I have in my head is going to work.

I hope everybody has a great long weekend. Happy 4th.

COVER ART

I did these two covers last year, but I never posted them.
