Mon premier post!

Bienvenue!

En attendant de refaire mon site web, voici un blog... Je commence avec des nouvelles(qui commencent à être vieilles..) de mon album "Mirror, Mirror" publié par Penguin Group dont je commencerai bientôt les esquisses du 2e album. C'est tout un défi, surtout que 2 images du premier album ont été choisies au concours Illustrators 53 par la Society of Illustrators. Voici les images choisies avec les poèmes "renversés" qui les accompagnent. Mon illustration préférée est la première, "Sleeping Beauty" (^_^)

Welcome to my new blog!

Here are 2 images choosen by the Society of Illustrators for the Illustrators 53 exhibit and book. They are from the children's book "Mirror, Mirror" published by Penguin Group. Sleeping Beauty is my favorite image from this book. Marilyn Singer did the beautiful reverse poems and I will start the sketches for the
"Mirror, Mirror-2" soon!

The Sleeping Beauty
and the Wide-Awake Prince























Typical.
Hacking through briars,
looking for love -
the prince at work.
But I have to be
sleeping,
never
partying,
never
out in the world.
It’s no fun being
in a fairy tale.

Bears in the News























ASLEEP IN CUB'S BED,
BLONDE

BEARS

Next day
Goldilocks claimed,
"They shouldn't have left
the door
unlocked."
She
ate the porridge.
She
broke
a chair.
"Big deal?
No!
They weren't there."

They weren't there.
No
