Beginning at the end of 2010 I was approached to illustrate a children's book, which is something I'd
never been asked to do before. However it has
always been something that I've been interested in pursuing - so to have this opportunity just 'drop into my lap'...
well I didn't need to be asked twice.
Over the following months I submitted one illustration a fortnight, and in recent weeks that changed to two a week. Today, this
very afternoon, I handed over the
final illustration (so excitement!) Now it will be sent away to be professionally published and I'm really looking forward to seeing the completed result.
I've included a couple of sample illustrations below to "whet the appetite"
The book will be officially launched some time in early 2012 and from what I've been told by the author,
Bronwyn Heeney, will be toured at book expos globally. Next year will
also be the Year of the Dragon, so fingers crossed this book gets a noice bit o interest and publicity.
