I created a #kidlitart drawing challenge for October. I wanted to keep it simple so it wouldn't be overwhelming to join and it could be easily combined with other prompt lists. If you'd like to join me, don't forget to use the hashtag #kidlitartoween25 .

Happy #kidlitartpostcard Day! I'm Ana and I love drawing bright, whimsical illustrations. This month I couldn't decide between a school theme or a princess theme, so I combined the two! 🎨 lobomaravilhaart.wixsite.com/lobomaravilha #kidlitart

Here is my illustration for this month's @scbwi.bsky.social prompt: "Mismatched". My inspiration for this month's prompt was the quote "Don't judge a book by its cover". What stories would this devious princess and sweet vampire tell? #scbwidrawthis #scbwiillustrators #scbwi #kidlitart

Day 28-31: combining "Help!", "costume" and "candy" from #ablartfest and "spider" from #peachtober24 . I've been sick for the past few days, so I combined many prompts for the last day. Happy Halloween! #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart #peachtober @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 25-26: combining "lunchbox" from #ablartfest and "backpack" from #peachtober24 . #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart #peachtober @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 24 of #ablartfest: farm. I spent longer than I probably should have trying to see if I could get my Apple Pencil to work. Finally, I decided to do a quick traditional drawing. #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 17 of #ablartfest : stubborn. My Apple Pencil has been glitching so I went traditional for this one. #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 17 of #ablartfest : late. #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 16 of #ablartfest : forest. I love fairytales. I love Halloween. Here is a fun mix of both. #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 15 of #ablartfest : underwater. Sirens getting ready for Halloween. #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 13 of #ablartfest : Dragon. I decided to do something different for this one and do papercut art. After I finished the characters and added the background and details digitally. #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

I finished mailing my ballot. It's my first time voting from abroad so I'm nervous about whether it will make it in time. I didn't realize how much I'd miss getting the "I voted" sticker.

Day 11 of #ablartfest : planets. This ended up being a bigger drawing than I originally planned so I'm a day late. #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

Day 7: "nap time" prompt from #ablartfest #ablartfest2024 #kidlitart @andreabrownlit.bsky.social

I made this for this month's SCBWI prompt: Comics. I realized I unintentionally drew a Bluesky reference into it. Do you see it? #scbwidrawthis #scbwi #kidlitart #scbwiillustrators

Share your purple art! 💜 #KidLitArt #KidLitIllustration

I made this for the #scbwidrawthis Backpack prompt. I always have so much fun when I do paper cut art. #scbwiillustrators #scbwi #kidlitart

If you see this, post a witch in a big hat 🧙‍♀️ #kidlitart #kidlit I did some experimenting with this one. I started this drawing off traditionally and then built up on it and finished it digitally. What do you think of the final result?

A sequential piece that I am planning to add to my portfolio soon. It's a part of a series of drawings I'm making with this character that includes the last drawing I posted. #kidlitart

If you see this, quote reply with something summery from your portfolio! ☀️ #KidLitArt #art 🎨
