I am having fun working on the book project about BUGS! At first glance the

project subject intimidated me, because I had never drawn bugs before. But I am

growing increasingly more pleased with the outcome the further along I get in the

project. Who knew bugs would be so much fun!

This week's Illustration Inspiration comes from Australian concept artist and

Illustrator, Charles Santoso. I was originally drawn to his 'Into the Wonderland

of Books' Series. His whimsical style and great color play was an immediate

sell for me. Than upon deeper investigation, Charles's sketches were my favorite

among his vast and beautiful works. I really adored the fishing boy and all

of the "Spunk" in the drawings. Thanks for the Inspiration Charles.

Ever wonder what I am up to?

One of my recent projects has been really fun, because I got to create a fairy

tale for adults. {dreamy}

Each character in the book played a very specific role so we opted for a profile

type illustration in black and white ink. I have included some of my favorites

above to show you a peak but there are more, like a wise judge and of corse

the princess!

This project was so much fun {!} I can't wait to see it printed, I will post a

link when its ready.
