Toast decided to have himself a plentiful helping of
pumpkin pancakes with an abundance of apple maple syrup
and a dollop of heavy cream, he affectionately called "Troll Slobbers."
Still on the hunt for a publisher for Toast. Perhaps April will be the month!
My portfolio will be on display at the
SCBWI TEXAS SPRING CONFERENCE.
I have my fingers crossed.
enjoy

I just love Toast! I'd love to know some of your creative process (noticed you sculpted a model). Do you paint first and then scan and manipulate on the computer? Is it all created on computer (if you don't mind sharing)?
Anyway, the result is awesome - I'll watch for it in bookstores.
Thanks for the kind words.
Actually I haven't used the sculpture for any ref. In fact I just got the finished piece a few days ago.
I normally will sketch an illustration first on paper to get an idea of composition and flow. Then I scan and lay down flat colors. After I have the simple shading done I use alot of custom brushes I have made myself by photographing pastel, watercolor, and oil brush strokes on canvas or paper. This, I find gives me a little tooth to the computer brushes and gives the art more of a hand crafted look.
I have, on occasion, printed the art and gone back over it with color pencil or small amounts of paint for highlights and texture.
Then I simply rescan and print.
It's somewhat of a cumbersome process, but one that has given me great results.
:) Hope that answers your question.

Hello there!Your ABOUT has inspiring words...and your pig is gorgeous!
The thing you called "hand crafted look",well, I certainly would like to watch you while you do it on the computer!!!:-)I had some lessons in Photoshop and I have a slight idea on how you do it...but not very clear!!!;-)Anyway I just want to tell you that it looks just great.
I'm back because I scroll down and saw more of your work.Everything looks so perfect!Textures and light!Howw!
Toast is looking adorable as ever! Great to see new posts, Good luck with finding a publisher. I'm going through the same trials right now. I'm just about to graduate and trying to find one for my book. Really I just want to find work...any kind of work! I do hope to see Toast in the bookstores!
Hey - thanks for the encouragement on my blog and for elaborating here on your process. I work in a bookstore and I'll keep an eye out for Toast in the future. Let us know how things go at the conference.
Georgous, I love Troll Slobbers.
This has such a warm, charming feel to it.
Good luck at the conference.
Best of Luck! I want to see a book, an animated film..toys.. all with the warm, sweet colors and fell of your illustrations! - fingers crossed for the conference- I'm off to the New England one this weekend!
I just noticed that cute picture of toast with a pat of butter on it on hanging behind Toast. As always, I love it. Best of luck finding someone. I know the right publisher is out there for you. Maybe you could start going to the publishing houses when they open, serve some real toast when you pitch Toast!
