Calling All Artists

Apparently the lovely people over at 100 Illustrations need more artists! In fact, they need 10 more artists asap! If you are interested, go see Diana over at 100 Illustrations.

Don't delay, this is a really cool project and a great way to get your work published and out there.

I changed my mind

Which is not surprising. I do that a lot.
So, what did I change my mind about? Well, it has to do with the 100 Illustrations book that I'm going to be part of.

Initially I was going to go with this little guy:

Then I found out I could submit a second piece! So I decided to go with this one:

 

I liked the contrast between cute and sketchy looking (the picture looks more like a sketch, not that the mouse is "sketchy".  Silly.) and the more  moody look of the rain one. 

Then I drew the kitties. And I just really like the one with the little dragonflies. So Buddy is going to replace the little mouse guy, which I'll just use for something else. Yay, Buddy!

He's thrilled about getting published. And by thrilled I mean he blinked at me, yawned, and then proceeded to clean his back left foot. Oh well. That's a cat for you! 

Mouse goes to Book Land

Based on an almost overwhelming vote for Mouse, I chose him to represent me for the "100 Illustrations" book. I was also leaning that direction as I thought he had a more universal appeal. I changed it up just a tad to fit the layout better.
I just hope he had his drink after he was done piloting his little ship and not before!

Thanks to everyone who provided input!
