Loving the redhead!

Here is the 4th cover for the friendship series called "Picture Perfect" I've been illustrating for HarperCollins. Attached is also the sketch that was chosen for this.  I ususally turn in about 3 to 4 different sketch options when I'm working on a book cover.

 I really try to keep the look and feel of the sketch alive when I go to color in Photoshop.

This series if full of lots of fun friendship drama.

So today I've just been playing around with some stylish characters. These are still in the last stages of finishing up the details …but I thought I'd share.

I painted the background and scanned it into photoshop then colored my kids in.  I love a good pair of nerdies!

Below is my third illustration for the Picture Perfect book series.  It will be available soon.

I love creating illustrations that  show a range of emotions in my characters.

One of my favorite clients is American Girl.  I've illustrated many fiction pieces for the magazine over the past few years.  I recently completed my third book for them which I am really excited about.  So thrilled to work along side of some of my favorite illustrators! I love being a part of spreading some
good fun and values to young girls (along with some super cute artwork!).

Thank you A.G!

Always playing around with girls and fashion fun!  Here's a girl with some cute round glasses:)
