| RATS! |
 |
These watercolors are still drying and I haven't erased the pencil lines yet on them. this is what they look like BEFORE I add ink lines to the picture for definition |
Today I took a few photos of my work on the book
Percy
Im doing these watercolors... with ink added
for my author/ poet friend...Danny Langone
and our rhyming children's book series.
He says Creeper (the cat)
and our very first book together will be out hopefully soon !
but I like my pictures for this book much better
with experience it gets much easier to relax and enjoy it
 |
This is still wet with no ink lines added yet. |

| Percy is tired of stale nuts |
 |
This is Percy afraid to look at the rat I would do this too ! |
and just being super creative this week
with your pencils, paints, materials, papers, cameras....

Hi Kathy!!!! I love this super fun collection you shared with us today!!!! Happy PPF and come share something sweet with us on my blog tomorrow for Sweet Saturdays!!!
It looks like you are really enjoying illustrating Percy and his adventures. What a fun project, mouse books were always my favorite as a kid. Percy looks like he'd go on my Frequent Checkout list at the library.
I am fascinated to watch this process unfold and they look so different once the ink is added... I have a tendency to ink at the beginning but maybe i need to reverse my process and give it ago xx
Ouch, sometimes I don't see all the pencil lines, I know what you mean. I love him, he is so cute. Your drawings/paintings speak. Blessings, Janet PPF
I would do ALOT more than Percy!!! I would run run run AWAY!~ lol ;)

Happy PPF!!

I love seeing the unfinished pages as they dry! its really cool to see what a "before" looks like compared to the after ink
