Snowy day sledding

After watching a snow storm out the window I decided to do a snow related illustration. 

I wanted to do something other than a contemporary sledding illustration so I researched and found a lot of fun reference for 50's children's winter attire.

A spot illustration to go along with my previous illustration.

Baking Apple Pie

I found an old sketch I did of a little girl holding a bucket of apples, and since I liked the character I decided to do a few illustrations based off of it!

A story about an egg

I've started listening to audiobooks while working on my pop art paintings, not only does it make the time go by faster but the stories I am listening to give me ideas for fun illustrations! I decided to do this three piece series about a boy and a dragon egg. It is set up as a 2-page spread for picture books and includes area for the text.

I am very proud of this little dragon as I've never drawn a dragon before!
