The GAG is Off! -Fall 2011 - Feb 2012
Yay I can finally tell you about the 2 projects that I was sworn to secrecy until the company was officially launched. From mid-September 2011 to the beginning of February 2012, I illustrated 2 books for Farfaria, An Armful of Acorns by Adrian Riding and The Greedy Ant Eater by Christine Sawinski. I'm happy to say that Farfaria went live on February 15th and both of my books are now available on the App store.

SCBWI NYC Illustrator's Conference - 4/28/08
Attended the SCBWI NYC Illustrator's Conference with portfolio showing in "The Portfolio Room." Generally a good networking experience. I'm not sure what will come of the portfolio room. It's hard to tell who looked and who was there. Wish I could be a fly on the Portfolio Room wall!
On a sad note the future of this conference maybe in jeopardy due to poor attendence and competition from the Mid-winter NYC SCBWI conference. Hope this conference lives on as the mid-winter conference is mucho $$$$ and not an equivalent.
