HEART OF ICE and FIRE AND ICE
The Hearts on Fire duo by Elizabeth Ruston
Who is this Elizabeth…
The process for Gunther the Underwater Elephant is now in its third year. This won't come as a surprise to anyone else who writes and illustrates their own picture book. The process is twofold. The manuscript must be perfected and the illustrations must hit the mark with consistency and impact.
It began as watercolor and ink ideas.
I decided to refine the sketch and move the action away from us a bit, to show more of each character.
The first job was for me to define the areas so I could concentrate on who was where in this entanglement.
Then some color and shading on about 5 layers in Painter IX and X. I also made a change in the leg positions.
Finally I added some seaweed and darkened the sea a bit. The final will have text at the bottom and maybe a few more bubbles with more clarity.

These little kids are either going to make their fortune with that treasure chest, or one of them will notice the mermaid just behind them and start taking pictures!
Here's lookin' at you kid!
And if you have come this far, and you love picture book artwork, you owe it to yourself to hop on over to the
Picture Bookies Showcase and view the wonderful selection from this week's gallery.
Got the free romance (thanks!) but had to say I’m incredibly excited about Seize the Parallel too! Your writing output is astounding.

I’m excited about Seize the Parallel, too, Kelley. You’re right, this has been a busy writing year for me, and that makes me very happy!
Hope you enjoy the romances, too!
Exciting!! I love romances that have interesting elements to them, and the adventure/travel part sounds fab. Even though I mostly read YA I do love to switch it up with adult romance every once in a while, so I’m psyched to check this out. Thanks so much for the download!
Great, Ashley! I’m psyched that you’re psyched!
Romance and food. You know you’ve sold me.
Congrats on the new publications and on trying something new!
Thanks, Adrienne! How nice!!!!
