2. Bring Your Bible to School Day: What You Can Share

by Sally Matheny




Did you know Thursday, October 8, 2015 is “Bring Your Bible to School Day”?

I enjoy doing the busy scenes. It’s always a special challenge to integrate the “silly things” these puzzles house. In this case, the kiddos are to find things that begin with “SU”. See if you can find them too!

5. Samples: Tara’s Travel Journal Mag Spread

This is a recent spread I worked on for Clubhouse Jr. magazine’s May 2010 issue. The art director asked for me to do a number of simple spots as well as the title to add to a young girl’s “travel journal”. I was to simulate a style that she herself might do if she was [...]
