Read MoreI have always felt the desire to publish a children’s book. Even when I was a child I would write short stories and then create drawings with crayons to go along with the stories. But life goes on as it does and I never seemed to have the time to think about it or concentrate time on it. And then came Covid 19. During my time of isolation I gave myself permission to just play with art. Instead of meeting deadlines, teaching students and creating intricate still life realism paintings, I just played with color and with other mediums. And during this time my grand daughter and I came up with a concept that would translate into a children’s book, so we wrote out the story and I illustrated simple drawings to fill the pages. Our children’s book is titled Your Favorite Color and it is a simple, bright book about color. It features two young girls conversing about colors. It is a concept that can be understood by children of all ages, without being overly wordy or complicated. Our book is available in my Etsy shop.
