Hi #KidLitArtPostcard!

I'm ChrisP and I'm an illustrator and animator, looking for new opportunities in picture books.
This is a spread for an in-progress book I'm working on with award winning kindie band Ants Ants Ants

But you really do have delightfully whispered backstories.

Bunji all the way—hands down my favorite cartoon of that era. Used to sing the theme song around the house and drive my parents insane. 🤓

Same!

Always loved this (and all) of your work Nick. Killer stuff.

Guilty as charged—if I remember correctly this was the very first color image I did of Ratchet back in 2001. Where has the time gone?? 🫠

You continue to be my hero in many ways Ian. Keep the torch burning!

Happens to the best of us. 😉

Another great update to one of my favorite tools. 🔥

Hey Shane, thanks again for the paper rec! I’ve tried Fabriano, Stonehenge, Arches watercolor, etc. but somehow missed Rives. In some quick tests it’s been great with graphite and red / blue pencil. For Prismacolor I’m trying Arches 88–still soft with slightly less texture which has been awesome.

I’ll give them a look!

Definitely agree Shane. I’ve tried every paper I can find, but they’re either too hard or too textured. There’s also an odd freeing feeling of how cheap newsprint is, but it’s basically melting in realtime. 😄
