Soapy Scientists!

Cover image for Preschool book entitled 
"Soapy Scientists!"


The following are interior pages.




Gravity!

This is a cover for a pre-school lesson book
that explains the concept of gravity. 
The interior tells a story with characters that 
can be punched out for bulletin board purposes.
The girl, the dog and the tree were all isolated inside for punch out.

*The client liked the characters used in this project so well that they 
wanted them in another book called "Soapy Scientists!"







Let's go to the Circus!

This project was to create a book of circus characters for a story with characters
that could be punched out to be used as bulletin board art for pre-schoolers.
Here is the cover art plus a few of the characters.

Science kids

Here are some kids that I sketched and my husband, Terry, 
did the final art. This was for  a curriculum based publisher. 
The art direction had asked for a multi-ethnic group of
 4th to 6th grade kids in an "anime but not too anime style."
The client loved them! 
We were pretty happy with how they came out too!

The Ugly Duckling.... Not yet hatched,



A to Z

Here is some artwork from a quick job I had at the end of last year. 
This one was a lot of fun! The sketches were very quick and got approved 
on the first pass which is ALWAYS a good thing! :)
