Children's Book Illustration

Hello! You've discovered a rare and new page on this website! This page features concepts for a dummy portfolio in children's book illustration that I've created to supplement an application to PB Rising Stars' 5th year of Mentorship offerings. The submission period has now passed, but I'm leaving up this work to continue to add to it as I grow my kid lit portfolio. Please feel free to poke around my other illustrations and storyboards in the main tab, and I hope you enjoy! <3

"Jules' Learns To Break The Rules"
Jules, who strives to be the most perfect game leader for her role-play group, has spent all month preparing the final battle against the evil dragon her players have spent weeks tracking down. However, when they finally get there, her players decide to do something even Jules doesn't expect, and now she has nothing prepared! She still wants the final battle to be fun and rewarding for her and her friends, but how will she make that happen without any rules or notes to follow?

"Mr. Mole, You're Okay"
Mr. Mole is an old mole who lives a quiet life in his hidey hole, following a strict daily routine. But one day he wakes up and suddenly everything familiar to him just doesn't feel the same anymore. Sounds are noisy, clothes are scratchy, and not even his favorite biscuits bring about an appetite. Help arrives in the least expected way, when his neighbor Daisy the door mouse turns up and they learn to navigate the overwhelm of everything being 'just too much' together.

"Where Did The Dinosaurs Go?"
A collection of cover and interior layout sketches for a fun and educative look at how some species never truly disappeared, and where to find remnants of them if you know where to look.
