A middle-grade / chapter book sample I made for my portfolio. Really love the textures and characters in this one, and working in only 2 colours was challenging but really fun! 🦭 #kidlitart #childrensillustration

Finally finished my picturebook dummy & I'm really proud of it! If you're an editor/art director & would like to see it, let me know (or Sophie at BookEnds). It's about a hermit crab who doesn't want to leave his shell. (And not remotely autobiographical, how dare you even suggest it 👀🐚) #kidlitart

Pro tip for browsing art shares, especially large ones with tons of replies: If you’re interested in seeing a mix of artists you haven’t seen before, instead of just the most-liked replies in the thread, you can go to settings -> Thread Preferences, and change the Sort Replies to be random 🙂
