Cheryl, your work is superb. I would like to talk with you further at some point. I have eight books that I want to publish, hopefully, using the same illustrator throughout.

Hi Cheryl, Welcome! I love the illustration on your profile page. I buy childrens books when on my travels and mainly for the illustration having a strong visual approach to the world. I love your bold colours and sense of movement.

WONDERFUL illustrations.
I too am working hard to get my illustrations out there.

Your colored pencil work is fantastic. I really like your tonal range and color saturation.

Hi Cheryl,
Do you have a couple of samples of your work you could e-mail: [email protected]
I'm looking for an illustrator for The Candy Caboose. A book aimed at six to ten year old kids.

Thanks,
Ron
