Been Bunny Busy!




Just thought I'd share a wee peek at what I've been working on and what has kept me away from my blog for so long!

I have been very busy creating the final artwork for the bunny book I am working on for the lovely Harper Collins. So while I am waiting for files to upload onto an FTP (don't ask!) site to send across to them, I thought I'd quickly share a little colour!

My computer screen has been a riot of colour and bunniness for some time now, and generally can be seen to look something like the first image above. I had to share Owl with you too as I think he has become a bit of a favourite, also thought you might like to see the coloured-up stretching bunny who's rough I posted earlier.

Am feeling quite excited about the fact that there are only two more spreads to do - yay! Then it shall be on to thinking about endpapers, title pages, a cover design and oh yeah, suppose had better come up with a title too!

Have loved working on this project which is a companion book for About a Bear and have enjoyed all the creative challenges that it has brought. As always though, I can't wait to see what it will look like when it is all finished and put together in all it's bookie glory. Shall keep you posted!

The Bear Book!

Well I couldn't wait any longer - here is a sneaky peek at my Bear book! This is an image I have just done for the interior title page, so this is a double page spread with text still to go in. I really hope you like it!

Colouring In!


Well since I last blogged I have been super busy getting things underway working with a new publisher to produce my Bear Book! Am so excited about it and am working with such a lovely team which is so refreshing.

I'm currently having lots of fun exploring different techniques to bring colour together with line in a way which would be suitable for the finished artwork. Lots of challenges here and I really want to get the feeling just right so am going to keep experimenting, but here's where I'm at at the moment.

Let me know what you think...
