Hi lovely rabbits!
I cannot wait anymore, I have to tell you!

Recently, I finally signed a book deal for a picture book I've written and illustrated!! I waited for this contract for almost 6 months and it's finally done!

I am so happy and thankful to all of you, especially @will-terry-art , @Jake-Parker and @Lee-White , without this gang and you guys, I would never be able to get to where I am now. I learned so much here. The monthly prompt challenges, the video lessons and the children's books pro course helped me so much to grow as an artist. In the country I live in, there are very little resources to learn picture book illustration and storytelling, so having this support played a huge role. Thank you. ️

The book will be published by Union Square Kids in 2025, the official announcement is not out yet, but here's the mock-up cover.

Have a wonderful winter everyone!

Congrats! You must feel so validated. Your style is so good I’m not at all surprised! Frustrating it won’t be out for so long but what can ya do:)

[mag]

@Larue Thank you!! And yes, it is frustrating to realise how long I will have to wait. I wrote this book for my 4 year old to enjoy, she's almost 6 now and when the book is out, she'll be seven, so
but it made me work even harder on new manuscripts, right now my agent is shopping around a new one and I am sketching a new book dummy.
