A vibrant digital illustration of a cute, green turtle with a patterned brown shell standing on a mossy riverbank. The turtle has large, expressive eyes and is looking upward with a slight smile. A calm pond reflects his image, with soft ripples in the water and a dragonfly hovering near green tall grass in a sun-drenched forest setting.

🐢 Most children's books fail because the characters lack a soul!

“Before they read words, children are reading pictures.” ― David Wiesner This fundamental mindset from the master of visual storytelling, David Wiesner, is another quote that adorns my studio. Picture book art needs to tell an enduring, visually compelling story, and not indulge fleeting aesthetic trends. I strive for a restrained timelessness in my art for children's books. If your passion project deserves the same, we should chat.

a child is trying to tell a puppy that the teddy bear is not a chew toy

Wanted to draw the month of February's prompt "tough topic".
#scbwidrawthis #childrensbookart #kidlitart #art #childrensbookillustrations #childrensbookillustrator
My take is that it's hard to teach a puppy what's not a chew toy

J'ai lu "L'incroyable aventure de Lantern" de @smirido sur son wattpad. J'ai tellement adoré l'histoire que j'ai eu envie de dessiner 2 des personnages.
