27. A Peek Into My Sketchbook,...

Here are some random sketches not really in a sketchbook.
 Just a few loose sketches that escaped the throw away pile. 
You can't keep them all... but I'm glad that I held on to these.







Sometimes the quick concept sketch has more life
than the ones you labor over for hours. This is one of those little gems. 
This was my very first vision for "Daddy Did my Hair Today" 
Still my favorite.


Another quick concept.

28. A taste of my latest book...

Rex and the Fly 

by Lisa Workman 
Story and Illustrations © Lisa Workman 2011



Rex was resting on a rock when by chance he did spy 
buzzing around his head, a teeny, tiny, little fly. 
He was feeling kind of hungry so he thought he would try 
to make a little snack of that little black fly.





He chased that fly until he needed a break.
Then he passed by Sally with a great big chocolate cake.
Sally said, “Get that fly right out of your head!
Forget about it! Eat some chocolate cake instead!”

30. Testing 1,2,3...

Sometimes the licensor requires a test before allowing an artist to work on the property. Here are a couple of those tests that I did. I ended up doing a lot of "Holly Hobbie" work but even though I was approved for "Dora", Never got a single piece. Hmmm, I thought it was pretty good too.

31. Boy & Hamster Sketches

Sketch for storybook characters
not used by client. Sometimes the best
sketches get tossed aside. 

In this sketch the hamster is trying to get
the boy to take him home from the pet store.
The kid says,..."I don't know,.... I was kinda hopin' for a puppy."
