The new children's book publisher,
ustyme, launched on September 25th, and with it, was my illustrator debut. Since March, I have had the tremendous fortune to illustrate three of the books in the
ustyme library. Below are some samples of the illustrations I created for Edward Lear's
The Owl and the Pussycat, plus my original thumbnail sketches:

Ustyme even included my Owl and the Pussycat illustrations in their launch video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CNXnYhfYf4. Their app is free, and the books are available for download at about $.99 to $1.99 each. The ustyme team has been amazing to work with, and I hope that anyone that has the technology will give this app a try.
