#publicationday#kidlitart

On the left, a boy in traditional south asian clothes holds a diya. He is looking down happily at it and walking towards the right. In the background you can see family photos and fairy lights hanging on the walls. On the right a mum and dad and their daughter are sitting on the floor infront of a diwali alter which is decorated with flowers. They are all in traditional clothing and are looking over to the left. The mother is beckoning to the boy.
To the left family are gathered outside in the background. An aunt is holding a baby. A father and son are laying down some powder onto a rangoli. In the background the grandfather sits on a chair looking to the right with his granddaughter in this lap. More family are gathered to the right. At the bottom of the page we see the full rangoli laid out on the patio in vibrant colours. There are 6 diya's laid out on it. A grandmother sits behind the rangoli with a blanket over her knees. She has her right arm over her heart and looks content. To her right her daughter is singing. The uncle sits beside her clapping along.
Silhouettes of people look up at the sky with their arms skyward as colourful fireworks burst above them in the night sky. In the foreground are a line of diya's shining brightly against the silhouettes

The Snow Queen reveals herself! #kidlitart

Whole illustration. The snow queen stands tall in the snow next her to sleigh. She wears a grown made of crystals and a staff made of the same. She holds out a arm to the right which shoots out snowy wind which wraps around a young boy who stands to the right looking shocked. He is caught. They stand in a snowy scene full of evergreen trees.

If you saw my reel on instagram yesterday you would have seen the work in progress of this! Another mock cover but this time for a classic story! #kidlitart

A snowy scene. A girl is on the back of a reindeer as is gallops through the scene. The both look determined. It is night time and the snow is falling over evergreen trees. In the distance you can see an ice palace through the mist.

When I first started illustrating books I wondered if the 'page turn' was really important (spoiler: it is!) & how to get the viewer to see the image the way I wanted them to. ⭐️ Wrote a little article: How To Direct the Viewers Eye in Children’s Books Art: tinyurl.com/22y9khm7#kidlit#kidlitart

A mock cover. We see a mermaid swimming under the water. Below her are underwater pans and coral and she is joined by a dolphin, octopus and sea horses as she swims. In the top left corner you can see a sunset sky with a pirate ship speeding along the horizon.
