"Don’t let yourself feel stuck thinking you have to have a lovely, physical, final, singular art piece for each spread to show off after the book is finished."

This pull quote probably just saved weeks off my next project. Less control! More fun! (At least that's my takeaway LOL)

"I'll fix it in post" is such a freeing mindset when you're working traditionally! So excited to read this book to my library kiddos!

I can't wait for this book! The endpapers!!!! Also, I draw on Crayola construction paper every day with my toddler! I had never even thought of using it in my work. It does have a really nice texture.
