Initial drafts, p1-6

Although I have the plot all written out, I haven't gotten terribly far in painting the plates for my children's book. Maybe if I post a few of my initial drafts, it will inspire me to work on it some more.

My thought is to start off in faded colors, moving to more vivid, bleeding colors as the story progresses. Although I do plan to paint pages 1-2, these are the pencil sketches in my little notebook I'm starting from.

  1. Exciting!
    It never occurred to me whether hummingbirds would be territorial. We are often buzzed by them as we hike through the mountains. People are often looking up and around trying to figure out what is that trilling noise.
    I'm not surprised to see cats, too. :-)
