Really pleased to have the first review for A Necklace For Jiggsy.

A Necklace for Jiggsy -New picture book

It is out. A Necklace for Jiggsy has been a special project for me. I had worked the illustrations in black and white many many years ago, but this is full color and I am so pleased. A story of a junkyard dog full of life's hardships, yet he must make a big decision. Will he do what is right? Please take a peek inside a spread at Guardian Angel Publishing.

Another Nice Review for Animal Sound-Mix-up

One more great review to add for ANIMAL SOUND MIX-UP

First Review for ANIMAL SOUND MIX-UP

Connie Arnold's new book, Animal Sound Mix-up has received its first review.

ANIMAL SOUND MIX-UP

Connie Arnold's new book is close to its release date. Animal Sound Mix-up tells why each animal sounds the way they do. Such fun animals for me to draw. Books like this make me so aware of why I do what I do and love it.

One More Promo Piece Added

Added this one final piece to my Illustration Promo Packet.
Research shows editors would like to see in your portfolio, that you can take a character throughout your book. Since I have been fortunate to have a few books published, I am using this page as an example. But if you do not have books out, don't worry, you can work up a dummy showing that you can manipulate your character.
