Covers are fun, but jackets are magical. I love the way art can wrap around a book, like a warm hug.

Another middle grade cover done. (Don’t tell the others, but this one’s my favourite).

I have yet to meet a mermaid in real life, but I can tell you for a fact that middle grade mermaids are a force to be reckoned with.

Dream project: I'm working on a spooky cover! And I can scratch #HauntedHouse from my "favourite things to draw" list. If you have never made a list of fav things to draw, I highly recommend it 😉
Sharing a sneak peek, perfect for day 22 (Beyond) of #AuGhost2024 #AuGhost

A rough blue pencil sketch of a children's fantasy book cover. A teen girl with shoulder-length hair, jeans, tee shirt and a long-sleeve plaid shirt over it looks seriously off-screen to the right at something. She's holding a huge sword. Behind her is a boy, also a teen and also wearing contemporary clothes. He's holding a scroll and looks startled at the same off-screen thing she's staring down. Behind them both is a fantasy cottage and some kind of witch gesturing on the porch.

As I've had trouble finding a good community to get feedback on my middle-grade portfolio pieces, maybe I can instead get good feedback from the #kidLit community here? This is a rough for a MG cover idea. Please give me any and all feedback and suggestions!
