Hello fellow creators!
This year sprouts with new growth and opportunities. I want to enjoy drawing again so its back to color pencils, pastels and plain ol' paper! This is the new cover for an old story of mine.
Hoping this year brings inspiration, joy and self care to you all! ❤️

My newest piece I have been working on from my PB manuscript based on my childhood experience. I loved the clack and feel of mahjong tiles!
What delighted you as a child growing up?

A boy stands surrounded by (normal sized) lemons. He carries a giant lemon, almost bigger than himself. We only see part of his face peering around the edge. He looks pleased with himself. Text reads Nicola Schofield, children's illustration. Rep by Sally Kim @ ABLA

May snuck up on me, with sunshine and heat! This boy is planning on making the world's largest glass of lemonade. I hope he'll share

Every day, I try to do something to SIMPLIFY my life (whether a big thing or little thing). My reminder note has already fallen down once from where I have it displayed, but I've taped it up again.
