I'm having so much fun working on three children's book ideas at once and, although going back and forth between all three makes for slow going, I find it really brings me a fresh perspective on each individual book as I review each one with a fresh eye every time.
I've been doing more sketches for what was my first project "Snow Day!",  about a little boy's delight that it snowed overnight and he realizes that it'll be a snow day at school that day.
I especially like the Cover with the snowman seeming to introduce himself, which I did quite some time ago and originally started my whole idea for this story and the fun for a boy to be had with his dog and a snowman when school gets canceled.

These are some previous sketches and color work that I went back to look at and get some fresh ideas for sketches and color.
                                                  
Rough Color Sketch for "No School Today"










              
 

Some sledding sketch ideas although I haven't settled on anything definitive yet.

I might use these for icons somewhere in the book.
