Maurice Sendak

"And when he came to the place where the Wild Things are,
they roared their terrible roars. And gnashed their terrible teeth.
And rolled their terrible eyes. And showed their terrible claws…"

Project2 (Children's book) many Artists

This book became a great project after many artists decided to donate their own work.
Every artist in the book will illustrate one story and the funds will be donated to help sick children.

If you want to learn more please visit http://goodstogold.com

I already got my story from the author and made the first illustration... which I HATED so now I have been working really hard to make a more artsy and deep representation of the story.

Here is the illustration I finished: (but will not be using)

Project 1 (Children's book)

Here is a snippet of a project I have been working on.
The book has no publisher yet... but I am very optimistic and think it will be available by the end of the year.
The story is about a Robot that wants more in life than just being a robot so he goes out and looks for his real call trying to fit in as many different things in many different places.
These are only the first rough sketches... many of them will never be published and most of the story is still unillustrated...
I will post the sketches in the order they were intended, but bear in mind that there might still be illustrations in between.
Anyway I would love if you could give me your opinion.

I'm excited!!

I am illustrating this new book, "The ABC's of Yoga for Kids", written by Teresa Anne Power. Should be ready for pre-ordering in December! You can check my blog or my website for updates.

Favorite Book

Mother Goose...a nice compilation of stories with lessons, great illustrations and little rhymes. I still look at it every time I start a new project. This is what Mother Goose would look like in my world!

Children's Book

Sorry for the slight «hors contexte» of my post; I have taken the liberty to show you my interpretation (quite literal) of Children's book. This is the first painting of a series I have started not long ago (the second is almost finished, the third is visualized in my head well enough ) about books and kids. I don't know how to name it yet, and the title «Books and kids» seem somewhat too... blah? Got some suggestions for me? :)

Here is some blogging about it.

Here's the page 2 of a children's book that I'm still hoping to start working on again. I have titled the book - Ocean's Day Out. Hoping to create an educational book that highlights animal abuse, pet dumping, sterilization, ear-tipping, responsible cat management etc. by how Ocean gets to meet homeless street cats while he is out taking a walk. Still a work in progress so hopefully I'll manage to complete it soon...

children's book

The challenge on Monday Artday this week is an unusual one. It's "children's book", with the actual challenge being "illustrate a page out of a childrens book you plan to make! If you do not plan to, just make an imaginary one!"
I chose "Zombie Jack and Jill", a story I may write in the future (but unlikely that I will). I just thought the concept was funny.

Zombie Jack and Zombie Jill
Went up a hill
And came down with a bucket of blood.
They hungered for brains
And other remains
As they dragged themselves through the mud.
