Hello #KidLitArtPostcard I'm Graham. I write and illustrate picturebooks. I'm also interested in illustrating for other authors plus middle grade and board books. I love textures, shapes and colour. grahamhowie.com Agent: Isabel Atherton creativeauthors.co.uk

#KidlitArtPostcard day today! Hi! I’m Brittanny and I’m looking for rep as an author/illustrator. Here is my website www.bhandiboe.com My work tends to be energetic but sometimes I can have quiet moments. Cars, backgrounds, animals, robots, I like drawing many things :) #kidlit

And the other dawn.

Phew final day. I’ll post both styles on here today. I’ve made a lot of art this past week. Well, I usually make a lot of art but I don’t post because they’re book dummies or sketches. But… #folktakeweek dawn The ugly duckling #kidlit

Folktale Week day 3: rain where the Moon is missing its friend #folktaleweek #folktaleweek2025 #kidlitart #illustration

Day 4 of #folktaleweek2025: BOOK Had a lot of fun thinking through what I wanted to say with this as a story. I like where it landed. (Books make a new home, lift us up) #kidlit #kidlitart #folktaleweek

#FolktaleWeek prompt #4: Book Brigid was the Celtic goddess of poetry & wisdom. Christian monks later made Brigid the Saint of poets. It seemed only fitting I should quote an Irish poet here: the divinely talented @nikitagill.bsky.social @FolktaleWeek #FolktaleWeek2025 #FolktaleweekBook

Day six for #folktaleweek and almost at the finish line. A kelpie for storm. I like the black and white, I might make it color at some point. 🤔 #kidlit #kidlitillustrator

Charm

Day 4 #book #kidlit #folktaleweek

#folktaleweek day 3, rain! It’s a thunder bird. I am tired 😴

You never know what will come out of a broken crayon. #Uplift More broken crayons, classroom activities, my broken crayon #KidLit picture book with Linda Sue Park: debbieohi.com/resources/re...

Folktale Week Day 1: Night #folktaleweek #folktaleweek2025 #folktaleweeknight #art #illustration

Day one of #folktaleweek is dark! Our little hero is making his way through the dark woods, following a path lit by mushrooms? Is this a good idea? We'll see! #folktaleweek2025 #illustration #kidlitart #storytelling

#FolktaleWeek prompt #2: Echo An oracle hearing the echoes of the The Fates (Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos). @folktaleweek.bsky.social #FolktaleWeek2025 #FolktaleweekEcho @debrastyer @louve.draws @matejalukezic.bsky.social

Today is #echo for #folktaleweek and I chose the Snow White by the well scene. 💖💖💖 #kidlit

Day 1 of #folktaleweek I drew nightmare eater Baku! Typically Baku is depicted with the trunk of an elephant, eyes of a rhinoceros, claws of a tiger, and tail of an ox. If you call on him he’ll eat your nightmares but beware! He might also eat your hopes and dreams 😭 #kidlit #artchallenge

I created these for narrative art competition. Don’t think I won 😂 but I still like them 😊 #kidlit

Me and my son jamming out to techno in my creative cave 😂. It’s all part of the process.
