Life with Spice

Life is better with a little Spice!
I have a new mantra: Live a life with passion!  I watched an interview between journalist, Harry Smith and Chobani creator, Hamdi Ulukaya.  During the interview, he talked of passion.  He said, “With passion, pray.  With passion, eat.  Drink, with passion. Make love with passion. Dance and play, with passion.  His words rang true with me and I knew in that moment that passion is the element that I need to embrace in my life.
For me, I also must paint with passion.  Remarks often made by visitors to my art booth are, “you must be smiling and dancing in your studio!”  Painting for me is my passion. 
So I will embrace my passion.  Revel in the spices of life.  This blog will be about painting, loose and spontaneous and about taking a front row seat. I hope you will follow along!

Step one in my illustrations, taking the words and imagining the scene.  I read a great article that advised the illustrator to "be the activity director", so as I read the storyboard, I am making notes and creating the scene in my head.

It's time to get started with my very first picture book illustrations!  I'm excited and anxious.  Wanting to do a great job for my Author.  It is often remarked that I should illustrate Children's books, but you need a storyline.  I am fortunate that my Author, Kristen Martin found me.  She wanted a Wisconsin artist and found me through my membership with NEWAA (Northeast Wisconsin Artist Assoc).  It was obvious on our first phone call that we were going to get along famously.  I found a contract template on the internet to make it official and we are off and running!  The final edits and page layouts have arrived from Orange Hat Publishing, so it's time for me to get busy!  I hope you will follow along on this journey-my first Children's book illustration!
