While transferring old files from disks to a new backup drive, I rediscovered several old dummy books and a variety of sketches for various projects. One project in particular I had a lot of fun going over again. I've had this picture book idea,
My Dog is Crazy, bouncing around for many, many years and it has gone through various drafts, rewrites, dummy books, critiques, submissions and around and around and around. It's had some interest from editors, but not enough to make it past the final hurdles to get bought. So, it has sat in wait for a while. I just may try to tackle it again.
This illustration came from a sketch from an early dummy book which I still loved when I found it, so I painted it. Once again,
#colour_collective provided the nudge I needed with the color Vert Pré.
Samantha Rose Edwards tried to hold Marvel, really she did, but Marvel is crazy. Zip-zooming, splish-splashing, squirrel-chasing crazy!

That dog^ does look positively crazy, while resembling most normal canines at the same time. A brilliant image.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Mirka. I'm so glad the dog is coming off right. Crazy but not mean.
