Day 31 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is BONES. Alas, poor Boarick, I knew him, Horatio. And scene. #kidlitart #kidlit

Day 30 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is SLEEPOVER. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 29 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is BILLOW. An all hippo version of The Seven Year Itch? I’d watch it. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 28 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is MAZE. It’s a nice day for a stroll for these rats. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

This Thursday is #kidlitart chat! #kidlit

Day 27 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is ATTIC. Rabbits up to the roof! This is from a book I wrote that I have out on submission. It’s about exponential growth. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 26 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is PIE. This is a spot from Hailey Twitch and the Great Teacher Switch. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 25 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is STRANGE. A Mylar balloon family portrait is pretty strange, right? #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 24 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is LEAVES. I decided to do a leaf study of leaves in my yard. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 23 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is TANGLE. My cat and any of my sewing/craft projects is inspiration for this one. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 22 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is MUSHROOM. Not every sketch can be clever. 🤷‍♀️ #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 21 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is CALICO. A calico cat in a calico dress. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Who robbed the Louvre? Right answers only.

Day 17 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is STALK. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 16 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is SCARECROW. This mouse is looking for new home. Will the scarecrow head be the right fit? #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 15 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is CHARM. He’s both the charm and the charmer - though I think polka dots is a strange choice. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 14 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is BURNT. They taste best when they’re burnt to a crisp. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

When the grandfather tells Bart to lick his lips and kiss a girl “like a mule eatin an apple!”

Day 12 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is TIPTOE. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 11 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is KETTLE. I’m super busy today (not really, I’m just watching football - GO BUCKS!) so I’m digging deep into my portfolio and posting something that is in the background of an old illustration. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 7 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is FUZZY. Ok, so technically this is a wooly bear caterpillar - but he’s just so fuzzy! #kidlit kid lit art

Day 6 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is CANDLE. I thought I’d do a very rough value sketch with this one. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 5 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is EYES. I don’t think I need to explain this one. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

Day 4 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is BIRTHMARK. If a vampire had a birthmark I think would look like a bat. #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration @theworkbookart @theaoi @dirillustration @childrensillustrators @scbwi @wpascbwi @epascbwi

Day 3 of #SCBWIArtober2025 and the word is PHANTOM. I got a bit literary with this one. "Out, damned spot! Out, I say!" #kidlitart #kidlit #illustration

I've finished the third painting of Family Members as Star Wars Characters series. This is my niece, Cassidy, as Princess Leia. We're having a lot of fun with it. #fanart

Just spent days updating my portfolio and published book portfolio on childrensillustrators.com/illustrator/...

I spent Sunday canning 30 pounds of tomatoes. So much soup and sauce in my future!

Is there anything more tedious than adding SEO info to images? Ugh!

I illustrated this fun book - 'A Snake in Music Class' for Dinardo Design. Sammy just wanted to play an instrument - but a snake doesn't have hands! #kidlitart #kidlit
