facebook community - cnebelungIllustrations

So I also have a facebook community page. I post a bit more there because It's so easy to use my phone and just take pictures of my process and share it. So Give it a look. Like the page for more!

Click the Link and check out my new book.


So this is it. Last year I was approached by a lovely couple to bring this alphabet book to life. I learned so much about myself and my style from this project and couldn't have asked for better clients. They are self-publishing this book on a site called lulu and it also allows you to sell through Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Once it's been approved I'll post those links as well.

New year. Old Project.

Well I've finally decided to start a project I've been mulling over for the past year. It's intended to be a portfolio piece for a mock animated movie so that I can make a book to show future employers. I'm going the Disney way, I'm finding an old fairy tale and putting my own twist on it. But my twist is that I choose a very NON Disney story. Basically mine does not have a happy ending. This is just me playing with the character designs. The story takes place mostly when the character is older but it does spend some time in her childhood. And I've been stuck in my Children's book style for a while now so I thought this would be a good time to experiment with my painting technique. I'm going to try and push myself on this one, with a detailed background and extreme lighting. More to come. Stay tuned!
