Congratulations and many thanks to the Auburn Avenue Research Library for their recent acquisition of two (of my favorite) original pieces of art from A Place Where Hurricanes Happen, “The Flood” and “Window”. I am excited and honored to have my work included in this collection so that other students and lovers of art can access it.

I'm so pleased to have been asked by the Allen Public Library to set up yet another display of my work in their gallery/lobby!  The illustrations on display this time are from two of my books - The New House and A Place for Zero.  The exhibit will be on display in case #4 until June 25, 2012.

Is this the piece you were looking for? If you collect original art and are a fan of my Redwall picturebooks, leave me a comment and let me know which piece you are looking for! If it is still available, I will put it on the list to post at ETSY.

There's been a lot of activity buzzing around American Holiday Artists Studios Marketplace, and we'd love to have you all come by and see what our artist members created (theme this time was Vintage Circus) to celebrate our new marketplace site! The artists are excited about the new site as we are! And when their work sells, they may very well put a new piece up within the same month!

We will also be introducing a new gallery called: "Potpourri". This section is offerings from our members who create limited edition, tutorials, patterns, and more for under $25.00!

Come by and see what our artists have been up to:ahaartistsstudio.com

I finally got around to listing some of things I made in my very own Etsy store!

Check it out and if you feel so inclined, crack open that wallet and buy something!
I don't normally sell my original art, so this is something new for me.

Heads up: The Halloween Heads and birds found in my Etsy store are the last ones I'm making this year, so when they're gone, they are gone.

Cheers!

This original artwork was commissioned by my late friend Brian Jacques for an exclusive, members only Redwall Readers Club Christmas Greeting card. This illustration is one of a kind and only a small number of reproductions exist. A rare piece for the avid Redwall collector! The artwork was created with Charcoal pencil on acid free paper and measures approximately 7 inches by 4 1/2 inches.

If you live in or around NYC, and have interest in the book arts, then The Society of Illustrators is the place you need to be next Thursday evening October 22nd! It is the opening reception of the 29th annual Original Art Show, and I promise the exhibit never disappoints. I feel honored to be part of the show this year, and look forward to celebrating the work of this lovely industry~

And P.S. A big CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Brian who won a Silver medal for Moonshot, his absolutely gorgeous book!

In front of my piece (from That's Papa's Way). It was fun that Peter's piece was below mine, and Julia's piece was to the left of mine~ Goooo Team Rodeen!
A small part of the crowd, right before Chris Van Allsburg came up to accept his Lifetime Achievement Award. It was so wonderful to hear him speak, especially because his incredible books were part of what inspired me to work toward a career in this field!
SVA MFA unite! Taeeun Yoo, You Byun, me, Paul Hoppe, and Chris Butzer. Congrats to Tae and Chris, and to all my other friends who had their work on display (AND to all my other incredibly talented and hardworking friends who did not, and should have!). It was a great exhibit, and an event that I look forward to every year. The show is up through November 25th, so go check it out if you can!

Monday was a very big day for me: I had the incredible honor of serving on the jury of the 30th Annual Society of Illustrators Original Art Show. About a month ago Laurent Linn, Chair of this years show, called me up to ask if I would be an alternate juror in the event that one of the others could not make it. I was honored to be asked, but doubted the fact that I'd actually be called in... Well, much to my surprise, I got the "you're in!" phone call on Sunday night. Wow. What a wonderful experience it was, and I am extremely thankful to both Laurent Linn (Chair) and Amy June Bates (Co-Chair) for having me on board! On of my fellow co-jurors, Chad Beckerman, did a great job of documenting the day over at his blog, if you'd like to see and hear a little bit about how it all went down (thanks for photographing, Chad!). This is going to be an awesome show--make sure to mark your calendars for the opening reception and awards ceremony on Thursday, October 21st!

Bought Plywood small oval and square shapes to start making ornaments for Christmas.

Mixed Media mini paintings and collage originals!

Ordered glass and glaze to make pendents.
