Meet the charmer of the season. A picture book influenced by both animation and silent films, and that puts those wet, miserable walks in context. A talk today with Estrela Lourenco about WALKIES: afuse8production.slj.com/2024/05/29/vis…

What would happen if I was to leave my two little ones unattended by the candy floss machine!

I need to celebrate…!

I just delivered a huge Color Flat batch for a book I have been really enjoying to color, but my goodness….working at this pace while 34 weeks pregnant with our second baby has been challenging…. I hope I can get some rest now :)

Picture Book Parade 2024 Leslie Barnard Booth: ONE DAY THIS TREE WILL FALL Estrela Lourenco Thank you! #EarthDayEveryDay

I finished the storyboard for this comic!

Of course, it wasn't during these last two busy months, but right beforehand.

I think overall, it needs some rework, but at least that first dummy draft is fully finished!

The second book in the series 'Silly Gilly' written by the really nice team at KiwiCo !

In this book, Gilly transforms in to liquid form and learns about what she can do, while having a lot of fun!
