One Step Forward, Two Steps Back!

After being a stranger to my own blog, I am now proud to post some photos of the Sketchbook Project show, which I attended in San Fransisco last week. The show featured mine and several other artist's sketchbooks with various themes and varying degrees of skill - but all of them were the result of sheer passion for visual art! The show itself was representative of 'humble beginnings' for most of us participating artists but it gave me a taste of the fruits of my labour, as I gazed up at the lofty ceilings of the bright and airy studio it was held in... I was so proud of my little accomplishment - I just wanted to burst through that ceiling!!! Here are some photos of that event...




The downside to this week was that I had to go back to the drawing board (literally!) with my UTales book, as I felt that taking it slow and being sure that my work is of a certain quality was more important than getting any effort of mine on there as an eBook. So I'm back to thumbnails and developing really tight sketches for "Baby Bop" which will give me an additional challenge! Also my Picture Book Critique Group has fueled my pace with redrafting and editing my writing, specifically on my story "Kavya's Magic Blanket Ride" and I will be submitting that in the Cheerios Spoonful of Stories  contest next month! Yay! Lots to look forward to....
