I have illustrated children's books for Scholastic, Random House, Penguin, Grosset & Dunlap, HarperCollins and Simon & Schuster.
Overview
I am a children's book author and illustrator. I have written 10 books and illustrated more than 85 books for a variety of publishers, including Scholastic, Random House, Penguin, Grosset & Dunlap, HarperCollins and Simon & Schuster. I have enjoyed creating many Hidden Picture Puzzles for High Five and Highlights Magazine and I just illustrated a story about the solar eclipse for Click Magazine.
My most recent project was illustrating "Once Upon A View" for The View on ABC. Their Halloween show theme was "Storybook Characters" and I drew the ladies of The View as fairytale characters in a story with a bit of animation for the show's open..
I also have extensive experience creating illustrations for the educational and religious markets in black line, grayscale and full color. I am comfortable gearing my art for any age group or grade level.
