I am a full time illustrator and cartoonist specializing in children's books. I began getting paid for my art early on, writing and illustrating comic strips and political cartoons for newspapers and magazines.
While I did pursue a career through college, I chose to study psychology rather than art, learning to hone my skills in illustration through on-the-job experience with freelance work.
Today, I have illustrated over 20 children's books, and have provided art for many other illustration-related projects. In addition to the traditional picture book, my art and flash animations have been used in interactive picture books for the iPad and other e-books. I have provided cartoons for logos, greeting cards, websites, animated shorts, and business material as well.
My work is usually created by drawing a detailed pencil sketch that is scanned and colored with Photoshop. For an alternate, cartoon style, I draw entirely digitally to produce more crisp, bold lines. Sometimes I combine the two styles, allowing a character to stand out as a bolder, digital drawing that is complimented with a more subtle, pencil background.
