I know you're all anxiously awaiting the Celebrity Guest Speaker Roundup I promised in my last post- and you will get it! My week-long intensive course at Pacific Northwest College of Art was spectacular. 4 days. 4 Celebrity Guest Speakers. 1 dummy. (That was the goal by the end of the intensive- to have completed a working picture book dummy). I'm happy to report that everybody in the class had a really great start on their dummy- and some really fantastic story ideas were discussed that week. A big thank you to all of the participants and to our Celebrity Guest Speakers!
Luckily, I had a fun project waiting for me when the week was over- Olympig jacket art! I've always loved hand-lettered book jackets, but this is the first time I've attempted it myself...
It requires a steady hand, but with a little yogic breathing I was able to get through it. Luckily I did not get the yogic giggles, which have been plaguing me at yoga class recently.
And, that's the sneak peek! More on the jacket art to come...
