Wishing you this Thanksgiving finds you with plenty of reasons to be grateful.

Fian Arroyo Children's Book Cover Illustration

Here's the children's book cover illustration for a series of illustrations I recently had the pleasure of doing for a book called "Princess Island". It's about a rough around the edges princess and her adventure at a summer camp specifically for princesses. I haven't received my copies of any books yet but was able to get a preview of the cover. It was a lot of work with over 30 interior illustrations but a super fun project. The publisher liked my pen and ink with watercolor style that I do digitally and I think it was a perfect match for this book.

Inktober drawing 14...Halloween Is Almost Here! EEEEE!!!! :-) We will feel the wrath of over 1000 sugar crazed zombies,goblins and other fiends on tomorrow night here Weaverville, NC. We set up a giant inflatable spider and an assortment of other scary related items throughout our front yard in anticipation of the coming assault. Stay tuned and I will post pics.

Happy Halloween!

Bio Pic Of Me For A New Children's Book

I just completed illustrations for a kids book called "Princess Island". This is the pic of me that will be used on my bio page. It's what I do to decompress between illustration projects. I thought that it was pretty awesome that the publisher chose this shot instead of the typical headshot. I'm stoked!

I did do the art that is on the board in the pic a few years back. Nothing like riding something with your own art on it...right? :-)

Juice Company Animation illustration

Back in the spring I had the awesome opportunity to work with my buddy Robin Ramos of Kernel on a project for Lil Squirts Juices for their "Nothing But the Fruit" campaign. They were looking for a fun way to reach both kids and parents with this animated court scene. Super Fun!!! Thanx Robin!!!!!!
