A new festive piece for the season. A small slip-up with St. Nick’s sleigh leads to a regretful reindeer’s review of the wreckage. Thanks to the fine folks at @astoundus.bsky.social for inspiring this illustration. #Christmas #illustration #kidlitart #reindeer #wintertime
Thrilled to share the last three illustrations from the SPORT or SHAM feature in the December issue of #OWLMagazine; Boule de glace, The North Pole Marathon, and my personal favourite, Yukigassen. Thanks AD Alex Dorward and @owlkids.bsky.social. #illustration #wintersports #skating #snowballfight
The first four winter sports images I illustrated for the current issue of #OWLMagazine; Shovel Racing, Ice Surfing, Skijoring and the Northern Treasure Hunt. Would definitely try the shovel races! Thanks AD Alex Dorward and @owlkids.bsky.social. #illustration #wintersports #shovelrace #skiing
The full winter sports spread I illustrated for this month’s issue of #OWLMagazine. Researching each sport was a blast! And imagining what the fake events would look like was silly fun. Thanks AD Alex Dorward and @owlkids.bsky.social #illustration #magazine #wintersports #wintertime
Some kids have already returned to school and our little guy is heading back next week. This illustration, from @mkbirmingham.bsky.social's great book CHOMP-O-RAMA (published by @owlkids.bsky.social) feels appropriate. #backtoschool #illustration #kidlit #kidlitart #kidsbooks #picturebooks
School is starting up again soon and it reminded me of some images I did for Chomp-O-Rama. Packing the lunches and loading up the back packs. Catching the bus or walking to class. #backtoschool #illustration #kidlit #kidlitart #kidsbooks #picturebooks #citybus #publictransport

Another preview image from CHOMP-O-RAMA, out in less than two weeks! In these images we have a kiddo enjoying some pho. A warm bowl of pho is always a good idea. Written by @mkbirmingham.bsky.social, illustrated by me, published by @owlkids.bsky.social. #picturebooks #kidsbooks #kidlitart #canlit
CHOMP-O-RAMA is out in stores soon! Pre-order from your local bookstore, @owlkids.bsky.social or online retailers :) I learned so much about how #animals eat from @mkbirmingham.bsky.social's book. Did you know #crocodiles swallow rocks?! Rocks in their tummies help digest their meals. #kidsbooks
