Drawing!

So I began sketches for a new children's book back in April that I've been hired for.

The book is about a little girl named Margo who is told that she will be an older sister soon. Naturally, she is not the most excited about this, but after seeing one of her friends bullied and her older sister comes to the rescue, she starts to have a change of heart.

Here are some character sketches for Margo, her dog, Fin and some of the other characters in the book!

I think it is kind of fun to see the process behind how the illustrations for a book come together and its many stages. So I want to share the first round of roughs soon, so stay tuned! 💖
