Book Illustration + Design

I’ve worked on many publishing projects – with publishers large and small – from cover design and layout, to chapter illustrations, to fully-illustrated picture books and their layout as well. Below are some examples and details.
Reach out with questions or requests:

Knitstrips: The World’s First Comic-Strip Knitting Book, from Abrams Publishing, written by Karen Kim Mar and Alice Ormsbee Beltran, co-illustrated by me, Michele Phillips (Jorgensen) and the fabulous Laura Irrgang. This is a graphic novel, or omnibus if you will – filled with interior comics of stories and patterns and instructions for knitting like no other who’s come before!
Cover by me, and interior is fully illustrated by myself and Laura – with each of us handling different interior comic ‘stories/patterns’ and instructions.

Cover and some chapter illustrations from The Hummingbird and the Hawk by Charles Pettis – a short story chapter book for all ages:

Coloring book and book cover illustrations and design – some for fun and experimentation, and Vertical and Sideways collectors edition covers (plus some interior surprise editorial illustrations) for the renowned Rex Pickett stories (you may remember that wine movie…)

Children’s picture books! For various ages and stages. The Bubblegum Girl, Saxony Grace series, and My Forgotten Self.

A different comic-strip style for Emory Healthcare Services: booklets for a community awareness program around mental health issues~
