@mag thank you! And what a clever idea, I hope it proves profitable for you!

@marek-halko thank you

@mag your coloring book idea is great! I would love to hear updates on how your book does. I've considered doing something like this myself, because I have drawings I've done for my kids as well.

I just finished this one with thoughts of puzzles on my mind.
@Asyas_illos I wonder if there is a way to create your own line of puzzles and sell them independently? Maybe do a kickstarter, or some other kind of crowdfunder, to develop a line of puzzles, as a collection? I am thinking in your style you would be super good at creating themed collections, for sure! From what I am learning about marketing, Amazon being a nice alternative to traditional publishing, this could be a great way to get your work out there.
Just rambling thoughts...
@kirsten-mcg Yes I love this idea... I made a coloring book for an author I worked with years ago. Loved it! Something so cool about just line art and letting someone else color it in... I agree there aren't great coloring books in the current market! @mag I love your concept here! Kudos for taking on the proactive measures to make your work! I was just saying to Asya maybe developing a line of puzzles, and launching a kickstarter, along with setting up something with Amazon could be a way to get out there. It's sooo exciting to see how artists can take the proactive approach to their careers. So thank you for showing how this can be done. 
Love the funny way penguins slide, this piece is jenky now as I'm learning frame sequencing and everything, but I'm having a ball doing this. Not trying to animate a full feature, just working out the notions stirring around my brain.

@ArtistErin these little animations you’ve been doing are so cute! I have zero experience with animation, so it might as well be magic you are doing. It’s on my very long term to do list…
@Asyas_illos Ooo I want this fishy blanket 🥰
It's been a long time since I did something like this...just a simple character illustration without overthinking story or composition. It felt so good to paint in watercolors and gouache again. I've been pushing hard to learn digital this fall, and missing my traditional mediums. Happy New Year everyone!

@kirsten-mcg This is so cute. I really like that you used traditional media!
@kirsten-mcg I love it! It’s nice to break out of the “illustration” zone once and while get back to the art.
@Asyas_illos agreed!! I'm heading this direction too. Craving the traditional vibe, just need to get my materials organized, and my desk cleaned off! Might be today's project.
@mag I just downloaded HAIR to my Kindle -- can't wait to read it! Congratulations on self-publishing TWO books!

@Asyas_illos LOVE these colors and the shape of your fish!
Took a bit of a break from social media and things to focus on personal work -- getting picture book dummies ready to submit to agents. The goal is to start submitting this month. Here is an illustration from one of the dummies:

@Melissa_Bailey Now I really do hope I haven't messed up!
