My last children’s book was about color and I was delighted at how well received it was by the intended audience - children! It was a very short book about seeing colors around you with characters that represented two of my granddaughters. Well, I just finished another book. This new book will be about numbers. It has the same concept but this time of seeing numbers in everyday life and how they can be fun instead of scary to learn.

I began by creating and painting a lot of watercolor illustrations of my simplified style of children in a variety of poses. This was a warm up exercise to get my mind and creativity flowing. Once I felt good about and had some fun creating the little characters, then I began to sketch out the pages that would make up the book.

The book “Your Favorite Number” will be available in a few months, but you can pre-order it now in my web-shop. Pre-ordered books will be signed by the artist with a unique sketch on one of the pages.
