I love when my #dragonfruit blooms! Their flowers open at night, so I check them with a flashlight.😀 Last year's blooms (In pics -bud to blossom) didn’t bear fruit—I learned I needed a second plant for cross-pollination. Bought one, so fingers crossed for fruit this year June/July!🤞🌸 #natureinspires

Just caught the replay of Carter Hasegawa's (@thet2agency.bsky.social ) webinar on tackling tough topics in Picture Books via @thewritingbarn.bsky.social. So insightful! Loved his share of 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘕𝘦𝘸𝘴 by @sarahlynnereul.bsky.social - the art and text danced beautifully together!

A peek into my process. Here is the "Color Map" of my 𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤 𝘓𝘪𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘳𝘺 illustration. Before painting large, I like to map out the #watercolors I'll use. I match this to my digital color study. #picturebookillustration #handpainted #mixedmedia #artprocess #dragon #library #magic
