Happy #kidlitartpostcard day 👻

I almost forgot to post my #KidLitArtPostcard for this month! (last month was my first one ever, and I'm trying to push myself consistently share my work 😅)

I'm building my #kidlit portfolio and trying out black+white illustration this month with some new techniques in procreate 🎨
Black and white illustration featuring four girls in a classroom. Three girls dressed as a doctor, ballerina, and a chef laugh at one girl on career day because she's dressed as a garbage collector.

This is my first #KidLitArtPostcard post!

I'm currently working on building more work for my illustration portfolio and developing new projects. This cover is a new project I'm writing and illustrating as a book dummy for a reimagined fairy tale✨

#kidlitart #childrensbookillustration
The image showcases a book cover for a reimagined fairy tale titled: Goldibot and the Three Gears. The central figure is a gold robot and above her are three small gear characters surrounded by the title text. The surrounding imagery is a geometric forest in greens and pastel pinks.
