My whimsical watercolor work, Lampoon Lane (originally Lamplight Lane), has been added to the Principia College art collection! When I learn where it is displayed, I will post the details.

A week ago I finished the rough drafts for John Churchmouse (very rough, but workable enough to proceed towards more finished art). Then I went out of town and, now back, am ready to advance. Despite the approaching term (which means back to intern work) and corresponding preparations, I can still squeeze some storybuilding into the schedule. =)
Summary of summer projects’ progress:
Today is one of those exceptionally frequent days when Largo al factotum is my theme song: errands, business correspondence & coordination, queries, writing assistance, cleaning work, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. (May I present His Majesty, The King of Siam.) These sorts of days are especially frequent while at Principia; the Principia multi-departmental pull will recommence in a month or so.
Several checkpoints have been passed:
In other thrilling news, my Rise of the Guardians art book arrived today! Magnificent work — an inspiration to any storybuilder.
And now, to draw my post to a rousing close–
<< Insert Rossini’s favorite coda >>
A few developments unfolding at various paces:
1. Contemplating self-publishing Racing Pajamas — Even though it’s not yet published, but I already have a considerable sales list. There’s much research to do on the matter. Hardcover binding and quality art (especially color) reproduction are important.
2. Writing another story about otters journeying to a new home. Perhaps I’ll illustrate it in “wottercolor.”
3. Beginning the first of what may become a series of children’s novels incorporating musicology. Think American Girl, but with music history.
4. Illustrating short stories for an online music education business! The style will look more cartoony than RP.
