Hello everyone,

I apologize for being away for a while. I've been buried trying to finish a new picture book, the second for me as author and illustrator. It's called "Bedtime for Bear". I'm finally finished. The book will be out next year. Here are a couple of the paintings. Happy New Year.

Here's a great new project that I took part in. It's a collection of very short and very scary stories. I worked on a story written by Josh Greenhut, who also did the adaptation for a Christmas Carol. The book is being sold to help First Book, an organization that gives books to children in need. Check out halfminutehorrors.com, you can post your own scary story.

"A CHRISTMAS CAROL"

"A Christmas Carol" is finally here. I'll be signing books at Books of Wonder on November 28.

Maybe I'll see some of you there. Here's some of my favorite art from the book.
