This was a demo piece that I did in a video for SCBWI - WA a week ago that showed how I did the art for Super Alphabet... now I'm thinking that a sequel is a doable.

With winter about over, I realized that I forgot to post a feature I got in the winter edition of "The Illustrator's Journal"...

$1 pledges NOW available!
The book helps to make learning the alphabet a fun experience. The book can be given as a gift to a couple with a new baby, or parents with a child going into kindergarden, it also makes a great gift at a baby shower. Any occasion you can think of to give a book to someone who does or might enjoy every letter in the alphabet.

Hi everyone! I've started a new project on Kickstarter. It's my new kids picture book "Super Alphabet". Please stop by and take a look. I would greatly appreciate in advance if you contribute but I totally understand if money is tight. If you could take a few minutes to post the link to other sites and possibly send it to friends who might be interested, that would help greatly and you would have my undying appreciation. Keeping my fingers crossed and working on the text for the interior of the book.

Here's a drawing from a 15 minute sketch challenge two weeks ago! Summer in the Pacific Northwest this year has been coming in fits and starts but not staying. We have more clouds than sun. This is my attempt to visual who is causing this problem... at least from a metaphoric pov...
Hope you dig it!

This is the latest in the Super Alphabet series of mine. The letter X and I've got two more letters to go. Right now they are all available as T-Shirts on Red Bubble but soon to be a poster and after that an ABC counting book for kids.
Look for the T-shirt here:

Hope you dig them all. See you next post.

In keeping with this week's challenge, I'm showcasing the letter "E"!
I started doing designs for the alphabet at the start of this year and I've got 5 so far... only 21 more to go. Look for #6 coming soon.
