Never bored when you've drawed... I've always drawn things and now I'm writing and illustrating with more intent to see what I can come up with...

This is such an interesting thread to read! Thank you!

This picture book is PERFECT! Everything about this is so good.

BEAR CAME ALONG written by Richard T. Morris, illustrated by LeUyen Pham.

Look at this cover. Notice anything? No names! And this, at the very start, is just the beginning of why this book is so good...

Today’s job... try and figure out how to use these characters in something... #painting #drawing #illustration #Draw #drawingoftheday #BeCreative #ArtistOnTwitter #scribbles #sketchbook #kidlitart

My 8 year old is getting into Calvin and Hobbes and drew her own character with this fantastic expression inspired by them! #illustration #scribbles

Hi - thanks! It’s about a bear and a penguin that run an ice cream van. Working on it with a writer friend, but it’s very slow going...

This is a rough of a spread that I’ve had to cull from a picture book I’m working on - bit of a shame to lose it... #painting #paintingoftheday #drawing #illustration #Draw #drawingoftheday #BeCreative #wciw #QuarantineActivities #share #ArtistOnTwitter #scribbles #sketchbook

A little work in progress though in progress to what I’m not sure... #illustration #scribbles #drawing #workinprogress #kidlitart
