What I am working on this week, in addition to cleaning up in the studio, is revising and repainting some older sketches.
In my cleaning and culling process I often find sketches that I have previously scanned and painted...often in too much of a hurry.
This week I will work on these three. I have the benefit and gift of more time this week. (did someone say "slow economy")
I will truly enjoy taking my time and dig deep to create beautiful paintings from these sketches. Stay tuned....

READY SET REVIEWS just gave me my present for the day. Actually it comes via the publisher who submitted the book for review.
Here is a link to the review of MY AFRICAN BEDTIME RHYMES by Brettell Hone and illustrated by me.
I was treated to a rare and wonderful experience working with the South African publisher, SHAMWARI and with Brettell.
My African Bedtime Rhymes.
One of the benefits of a good review is good sales... and good sales mean another book will be forthcoming *:)
