The Open Sea



The SCBWI site runs regular illustration contests - the last one was to illustrate an unconventional wedding. By the looks of it there were some pretty great entries. Here was what I came up with. Mind you, I've never been to a pirate wedding. Yet.

And in other more mundane news I drank some natural, organic energy drink today that tasted like water infused with seaweed (blech), survived a swarm of deadly kamikaze mosquitoes (barely), and enjoyed a really nice walk in the lovely warm twilight. Ah, summer...

I'm actually been pricing prints online for awhile and hoping to start having some made up in the near future.
