Here are a couple of new paintings I'm working on for my pig opera book. These have been really fun because I'm not tethered to typical book illustration format but have been able to just make paintings (I didn't have to make room for text!). These I'll be sending off this Fall to enter in the Bologna Children's Book Fair 2010 Illustrator's exhibit. It's been a dream of mine for years, and even if I don't get picked, I'm just happy to finally be doing it!

excuse me!

Its finally up! My book "Excuse Me!" seems to have a life of it's own. This is a really cool program called Read to Me Las Vegas and I'm really proud to be a part of it. Carrot Top does a pretty funny performance, but burps a lot better. Go watch the video: Excuse Me! as performed by Carrot Top
