Continuing with sharing images from the ‘Animal Color Book’ that I did for Dover last year. Above is one of the ‘colorized’ versions I did for cover usage, and below are the next 8 pages of the book.

Getting old and forgetful. I was just looking back through my past year of blogging here, and I realized that I had promised back in September that I’d be sharing the illustrations from the ‘Animals Coloring Book’ that came out last year, and I completely forgot to follow through with it. Since this book is rather lengthy, at 50 pages, I think I’ll post them in installments. Here’s the first 8 pages, plus one of the colorized illustrations used for the cover.

Of course, the follow-up book to this one, ‘Beautiful Trees’ will be coming out next month, and I’ve just received my author copies in the mail this past week, so I’ll be likely following up this series of posts with a series devoted to that book (if I don’t completely forget about it that is…).

More book cover illustrations for Dover’s ‘Classics’ reprints. Above is ‘Captains Courageous’ and below is ‘Eight Cousins’. Still working on a new paper doll project, and had to put off starting on the annual ‘Oscar Poster’ until I get some free time (maybe in a few weeks).
