Another page from "Go Ahead and Dream"

Here's 1/2 of a double page spread that I finished drawing tonight. It features my beautiful wife and my stepdaughter.

All the reference photos were shot separately which didn't make things easy for me. So I had alot of work trying to figure out scale. Does it work?

I forgot to mention last time, that the pencils are drawn digitally using a tweaked 2B Pencil brush in Corel Painter 12.

Back at it... "Go Ahead and Dream"

So after basically a year on hold. I will be wrapping up the final art for Karen Kingsbury and Alex Smith's picture book "Go Ahead and Dream". I should have all the art to HarperCollins by September.

Before I start painting. Here's a sneak peak at one of the pencil drawings from the book.
