Friends, it’s October! Not only does this mean apple crisp on heavy rotation, it also means we’re celebrating a book birthday! BECOMING A GOOD CREATURE by Sy Montgomery just landed in bookstores and on bookshelves! What better way to celebrate than to take a peek at the illustration process. We’ll meet some of the lovely animals, dive into the preliminary sketches, and see some of the final interiors. As many of you know, I worked on Sy’s best-selling adult memoir, HOW TO BE A GOOD CREATURE . When our editor Kate shared the news of a picture book version, I was over the moon.
Hello plum cakes! It’s officially SEPTEMBER which is wild! Where did the year go?! It seems like just yesterday it was New Years and I was eating ramen and pistachio desserts (my fam’s little tradition). You know what doesn’t feel like yesterday though? Reading the manuscript for A Bear Far From Home for the first time. It was December 2019 and I received the MS in my inbox with an invitation to illustrate it. Picture books can take so very long, and when they do come out, it feels like the cultivation of so much time, especially for the writer, but also the editor, designer, and whole publishing team. After almost three years (since reading it) it’s out in the world this month!

Madame Saqui, Revolutionary Rope Dancer written by Lisa Robinson and published by Schwartz and Wade is out! As soon as this manuscript landed on my desk in 2017, I knew I wanted to illustrate it. Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, the book celebrates the incredible rope dancer who defied the constraints of women (and her parents!) and dedicated her life to tightrope walking. Today, I’m pulling back the curtain to share the entire illustration process. From storyboarding to layouts, style explorations and finals. Get your popcorn and settle in - it’s a long one…

GUESS WHAT! I got to work with some of my favorites humans again. You may recall the book I illustrated last year, HOW TO BE A GOOD CREATURE by Sy Montgomery, published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Well we’re BACK. Sy has written a beautiful children’s adaptation of the book and I was lucky enough to illustrate. BECOMING A GOOD CREATURE is a luxe full color picture book which celebrates all the lessons Sy has learned from her most profound teachers, whether she’s met them in the ocean, or in her own backyard. I truly can’t wait for you to see it. This week, drumrollllll, we revealed the cover!! Look at that silver foil my friends. I could eat it up. And because I’m all about process, here’s a look at the sketch…
