The Meet-up

{Watercolor, 2014}

This is a personal piece I just finished. I wanted to illustrate a town for my portfolio but then I couldn't help myself from adding a little bit of a story. One of these days I need to do a massive sketchbook post too. I have tons and tons of sketches that I will share soon. I think sketchbooks are the best thing about being an illustrator.

Today is Flag Day and I thought it would be a perfect day to share this poster that was created for the Windsor Heights 4th of July celebration. If you live in central Iowa, I highly recommend Windsor Heights' Independence Day festivities. Their parade is wonderful, they have activities for kids, music, food and fireworks! Their even doing a bike decorating contest for kids this year. How cool is that? I created this by scanning in a drawing and painting it in Photoshop. 

Illustration Friday - Infinite

This is a series of illustrations for "My Light" Magazine. The story is about a boy who wants to write a letter to his aunt in heaven and he doesn't know quite how to deliver it. He doesn't understand that heaven is an infinite and everlasting place where earthly possessions do not exist. I thought this series of illustrations fit perfectly for the theme of "infinite" for illustration Friday, because heaven is infinite love, enjoyment, peace and happiness and it is a hard concept to understand for any age!
