27. “Brave” teaser poster

Say what you will about Cars 2 — Pixar’s 2012 release Brave looks hot. And this first teaser poster bodes well for the final results.

28. First Look: a frame grab from Pixar’s “Brave”

Cinema Blend found this first frame from Pixar’s 2012 release, Brave. This one image excites me more than any footage I’ve seen so far from Cars 2. If a Brave trailer is attached to the upcoming race-car feature – that alone may justify a trip to the cinema.

(Thanks, Chris Arrant)

30. IF "Brave"


"It's hard to be brave when you're just 3, and there's something outside your window!" This is from a story I illustrated a bit ago, and thought quite fitting, especially during such a busy week!

31. Illustration Friday ~ Brave

When Mario fell asleep, the mice lassoed his paws and held tight as the others sneaked passed him, carrying their treasure into the night!

32. ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY ~ BRAVE LUCIE


Was it the fact that she would jump overboard to save that small box containing who knows what? Or was it the fact that she could wear that color combination in public. Whatever it was, there was no doubt that Lucie was not only brave, but bold.

33. Illustration Friday: brave


My submission for Illustration Friday's "brave" is a cropped version of my idea of "Home of the Brave". I had to crop an illustration I have already submitted before because I am pressed for time but I love to submit for the word :D it is a joy to play along each week! This is from my 2004 HomeMade calendar and it is called "Field House". I live in an area where the Chumash Indians lived.

I am taking care of Nomi and I walked her behind the house into the park and we stumbled upon

the most beautiful mushrooms. So I thought I might share a little slice of my world and it is very spring-like today :) Enjoy and have a lovely weekend!

34. Brave

What an inspiring week. I heard fantasy author Laini Taylor, this week at the local SCBWI meeting. She offered all kinds of tips how to keep moving forward with your work. She brings a spirit of play to her work and that was sooo refreshing. Follow that link for hours of inspiring information.

I find it takes tons of bravery to write books. You have to sit in that chair day after, seek out your muses, and toss out fresh, brilliant work (eventually). Either you are crazy or you are on a mission. I'm going with the mission.

So these are my steps to bravery. I bring to mind those times when I was sure of what I was supposed to do. I read my journals and they help me remember how I got here and where I'm planning to go. I leap whenever necessary. I revise when I figure it out. I listen to my friends. I hope extravagantly. And this is my favorite thing - while I'm waiting, I believe.

This doodle is really old and sort of a self-portrait.I think was nineteen-years-old. I'm calling it Green-girl.



This is kinda long, but it was the major playlist hit this week. From Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, "Somewhere over the Rainbow."

35. The Constitution and the 4th of July

Rebecca OUP-US

To get you excited for the 4th of July holiday we asked Donald Ritchie to blog for us. Ritchie is the author of Reporting from Washington: The History of the Washington Press Corps, Our Constitution, and The Congress of the United States: A Student Companion. His post is sure to make you feel patriotic!

Presidents and legislators often catch flack for taking holidays and not attending to the people’s business, but sometimes a timely break can help move things along. If not for a 4th of July recess, for instance, the U.S. Constitution and the federal government as we know it might never have existed. (more…)
