Bunny Post #10 - Hare with Laptop

Detail from illustration used on a self promotion postcard announcing my Illustration Website.

I have to make like this hare and get to work on my latest Picture Book dummy venture. Sometimes I draft the whole story first than thumbnail than draft etc. This time around I find I'm doodling, then outlining, than sketching than back to scribbling words. My text isn't ready for me to type up yet  but the art is taking shape in a very rough form. Working in a random pattern rather than linear. Not saying one method is better than the other, just that this is how my current project is unfolding.

Bunny Post #9 Baking Bunnies

Kitchen Calamities ensue when this family bakes together. 
Currently I'm working on another Picture Book* idea; drafting the story and trying to decide what animal characters to use. The only thing I know for sure is that it will have an animal characters. They will be clothed and there are some cooking/baking scenes and of course baked goods. The question remains what type of animals? Rabbits as in the above illustration? Bears? Cats? Squirrels? Will have to mull this over in my sketch book.


*I'm participating in the #PBdummy challenge over at the KidLitArt blog. Read more about the challenge HERE - scroll down to the 1/4/11 post.
