APE and 826 Valencia

I had a wonderful time at APE this past weekend. Thank you to my amazing table mates (Eli Harris and Sara Palacios) my students, friends, and delightful family that stopped by. Can't wait for next year.

In other news, I'm going to my second orientation at 826 Valencia this week. It's a writing center for children and adults. Thumbs up to the inspiring Lisa Brown for introducing me to this tremendous organization.

Lastly, here is another little Santiago preview. I'm just finishing up a few revisions and the cover. I love my collaborative team at Appleseed!

Santiago Stays

I'm nearly done with Santiago Stays. Here is a small preview. (Appleseed 2013)  

Hello Santiago

I'll be posting the finals soon, but here is a revised final sketch for my book Santiago Stays (Appleseed 2013). It's keeping me busy in between teaching. In addition, I'm on the committee for the Sixth Annual SCBWI SF Illustrator Day on September 29th, 2012. Should be a great event and it's not too late too register!

Santiago and Sketchbook Calendar

 I finally finished my sketchbook calendar! Almost ready to send it to the printers. I'm also happily working on Santiago Stay's Studies (Appleseed 2012). 

New character sketches from Santiago Stays (Appleseed 2013).
