For the past few weeks, I've mentioned that I have an announcement to make about my art goals for 2016 and now the time has finally come to share! Are you ready? This year, I will be working with my dear friend Lauren to create a children's book!! :-D
Today, I wanted to give you a quick introduction to our story's two main characters; Pixie and Yeti (as we are calling them now).
As you can see, they're a friendly pair. ^_^
I'll be sharing more about Pixie and Yeti, the story, and other project stuff throughout this year. Since I've never written/illustrated a children's book before, I know I'll have A LOT of learning to do and I'm planning to share my journey and discoveries here.
This book will most likely be my main focus, art-wise, this year. Ideally, I'd like to have it done and ready to share by early next year. I'm not sure if that's a realistic goal or not, but we'll see. I'm planning on sharing weekly updates on how the project is going. In order to make room for that, I'll be grouping skill-building and sketchbook art into one post at the end of each month.
Also, I now have a fancy-pants Facebook page, so if you're interested in following this project and my other art adventures, you can head over there are and like the page, etc. Here's the link. Feel free to share any questions or thoughts there and I'll do my best to answer them.
Whew! That was a lot of info. Thanks for sticking with me to the end! I'm really nervous/terrified to start such a massive project, but I'm also very excited. This should be a crazy year! ^_^
onward and upward,
Bethany
