Absolutely in love with this portrait I did for a client. I enjoy using texture so so much on these. It makes the portraits feel so intimate. 🥰✍🏽

Does anyone here do Kintsugi? I have a question about whether it can be used to repair a square tile. It has sentimental value to me. I grabbed a pic off Google just to show an example of the kind of repair.

Thanks for all the support on my most recent doodle and pumpkin post! I think all that good energy stimulated another female flower to grow into another pumpkin this morning 😲😁

Absolutely tickled this pumpkin came from my front yard. The birds I feed dropped a pumpkin seed and it grew to a WHOPPING 12.6 lb pumpkin. There's 2 more on the vine waiting to be picked. This is what I call living in a picture book #KidLitArt #PumpkinSeason #KidLit

As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

Publishing illustrators: remember, lettering the title, doing spot illustrations for the back/spine, doing illustrated endpapers... These are all things that should extend the budget of a project! If you're asked to do work outside the original piece, ask for more $

A WIP for a new illustration I'm doing. The appearance of black boys is over-policed in schools in my country. There is deep bias against black school boys who choose to grow & style their hair- especially with locs. How they wear their hair is not a reflection of their ability to learn. #kidlitart

For all the new artists joining up you can in fact create a feed displayed on your profile with just your art or whatever else you want. Here is my art feed for example This feature is a genuine step up from X the Everything App.

Loving how this turtle illustration came out! I played with my style a bit more for the background. Took my time with this handsome fella and his fly bow-tie. 🎩🐢🎨 #kidlitart
