day. It’s my favorite time to draw. I’ve been working on a softer style that I think would be a great fit for chapter books or graphic novels.

When time allows I make mini Aquaman comics. I made the first one for a friend during the pandemic. It was a nice break from the computer so I kept making them. I couldn’t post the entire thing here. I included a link to my Instagram post.

Happy to help! I will say, even though illustrators do not typeset their books after they’ve been acquired by a publishing house, studying typography, and lettering, and book design will lead to stronger dummies, which will increase the odds that they get acquired. :)

Close up of some hidden picture fun. See if you can find the objects. You are looking for a pear, bowl, slice of pizza, and a sock. 😀

Vintage Golden Books usually have a letter on the last page near the spine which tells you what printing it is. I couldn’t find a letter anywhere on the Color Kittens. I even looked to see if it was tucked under the spine.

Any ideas?

I met all my deadlines so I decided to go on a vintage Little Golden Book hunt. Here’s what I found. All of these were had the same owner. The book “When I Grow Up” still had its original puzzle in the back.
