Tabletop time with daughter continues today :) Yesterday she explained to mummy that "daddy's dice game is really easy - you just roll the dice and say stuff" and I think this should go on the back cover of the Overgrown revision I've been not finishing off for ages now...

Libraries are core to so many childhoods. They are filled with the magic of knowledge. They are warming stations, community centers, and meeting spaces Libraries are story time facilitators, so it is only fitting that a library be the first setting for @collabstorybooks.bsky.social #artprocess

This cave spread for @collabstorybooks.bsky.social had me so nervous in the middle of it. There were so many moments where I have to trust the process. And I'm so glad I did. I'm so lucky to be able to try new things and be creative for a living. #artprocess #projectswelove #kickstarter

I found myself rewriting or making up new story lines to books we read 100 times and thought what if there was a book designed to be new everytime? Collaborative Story Books | Fantasy Adventures was born. A book of settings to tell your stories together! #ttrpg #kids #booktok #kidsbooks

Illustrating by hand is a process about discovery. For big pieces like this cover I often lay down a layer of shading in one color. Like underpainting oil paintings. This helps me get my head wrapped around light sources and creates deeper colors in the final piece. #artprocess #illustration

I cannot express how excited I am for Collaborative Storybooks to launch on Kickstarter in just a couple of weeks. Collaborating on this project is pushing me so much as an artist, and brings back so many fond memories of the stories my Dad made up for me as a child. @ttrpgswag.bsky.social
