Since my mom pointed out that my niece might be jealous of all the sketches of her brother, I tried to capture her adventures with an inchworm this weekend. Kids definitely have the advantage in finding bugs at their height (and younger, stronger eyes).
Don't you love my self-centered post title?!
The Portsmouth Herald ran a piece on me today, based on an interview I did last week. It's a little exciting to have a little press - and I think the writer did a wonderful job. Especially considering my wacky ramblings! Read it here.
I'm off my morning schedule because of it, but will be getting over to my drafting table for my 21 day exercise ASAP!
To bring my nephew up to date, here's a sketch from a recent photo of a little league game. I'm glad that he has good athletic skills - something I completely lack (does ping pong count?). I had a hard time capturing the look of intense focus on his face, it reads more like nervous here.
Thank you to everyone who made it to the opening on Friday! I thought the event was a great success. It seemed busy and active the whole time. The show will be up until at least early June so come visit if you find yourself in Portsmouth. Kids welcome of course!
I kept telling Robert that I am notorious for blinking in photos, but ironically he is blinking in the picture I grabbed from my Dad - sorry Robert, it was the only group shot he had. (You'll post a better pic on your blog I just know it!)
Me, Robert, Tess, and Teri. You can see Teri's lovely watercolor spread above my shoulder, David McPhail's work behind us at eye level and Robert's work just below. My work and Tess' is just out of sight here. Other illustrator friends who paid a visit were Vita, Andy, Eric, and Nicole. Ok, now back to work!!!
