Writing
It has been repeatedly said that the road for a single voice is with peril
and persistence.  The rewards on the other hand for the creator and the 
SIGHT FULL house to publish a fresh, new, everlasting look is beyond measure.  A win, win situation for all, Children, Publisher and Author/Illustrator.  Our greatest resource is Children and to be able to enrich their lives with  hope, laughter, excitement, well-being, coping with everyday life,  in a book that would stand the test of time is my heart set.
True to my style, unlike most,  I humbly submit a few of my samples for your review and file, hopeful you can use me. 
My two loves are writing and illustrating (ultimate goal a book with both) 
but I am a realist and available for art assignments. 
Perhaps you have a writer waiting for that just right look from an illustrator. 
As you can see my work is light, fun, colorful and captivating. 
My characters have stories of their own. 
You may see a story in my art characters you would like me to write. 
Two hats are hard but fun.  When I write a story I see the art work. 
When I create Art, visions of words flow through my head. 
Thank you for your time and review.
Written and Illustrated Books Unpublished
Easter Frog
A very enterprising frog sets out one Easter day to do what bunnies always do on Easter.  Filled with lively action and humor.  Book dummy is alternating black/white with color.  But full color would be outstanding.  This is a part one of a series of books; Santa's Frog, ABC Frog, School Frog, Etc.
Secret Box
A young boy has a simple box and as the day goes on with his friends and all the things they have, he just holds on to his special box which most of them don't have.  Neat ending.
Moon Child
Here a young child looks outside her window up at the moon and each page reflects another set of children from their country.  Delightful scenes of their native clothing and window view of their country.
DolliPops (series)
Here is a special gal, with her friend Bud, baby twix, doggie and Mr. Flea FizGibbons who stumble on an enchanted tree.  Each have their own special gift within and their adventures begin.  The first book is" DolliPops in the Land of the Sunshine Tree".  Yes, she is just a rag doll, but a pretty resourceful one.  They encounter colorful and interesting people on their journeys.  I designed a doll her and my daughters still have them.
