Kid Stuff Winter Catalog Cover

I recently illustrated another fun piece for the great folks at Kid Stuff for their winter 2013 catalog. Its great to see kids have so much fun with toys and I wanted to capture that joy in this piece. I posted an earlier blog on Oct. 1 that shows a super rough gesture sketch of how I wanted the composition to be. It was a challenge to fit all the elements, the client requested, into such a vertical format and leave room for the logo and some type but I do love a challenge and believe it came out great. What do you think?

Thank you Kid Stuff for the opportunity to create such fun pieces and I look forward to many more....you all rock!!!!
