Line drawings

     Here are some simple line drawings I did today.  I love drawing with Micron ink pens.  I feel like there is so much expression and emotion in a simple black and white image.

Girls with sunglasses

I haven't painted in watercolor in forever. Had fun this morning and painted some girls with sunglasses. Drawn in ink first …then watercolor…then into the computer and added a background.

Loving the redhead!

Picture Perfect book #4

Here is the 4th cover for the friendship series called "Picture Perfect" I've been illustrating for HarperCollins. Attached is also the sketch that was chosen for this.  I ususally turn in about 3 to 4 different sketch options when I'm working on a book cover.

 I really try to keep the look and feel of the sketch alive when I go to color in Photoshop.

This series if full of lots of fun friendship drama.

City kids

I added a graphic city background just to sort of tie it all in together.  

Cute kids with nerdies!

So today I've just been playing around with some stylish characters. These are still in the last stages of finishing up the details …but I thought I'd share.

I painted the background and scanned it into photoshop then colored my kids in.  I love a good pair of nerdies!

Picture Perfect

Below is my third illustration for the Picture Perfect book series.  It will be available soon.
I've had so much fun working on these cute girly covers.  This book is titled "Best Frenemies".

New cute tween book series!

Here's a sneak peek at the latest series I've been working on with Harper Collins. The stories are based on fun friendship stories for girl's ages 10-12.  The books will be in bookstores in January 2015.
