It's quite a warm week here but beautiful in every way. The Spring/Summer flowers are really blossoming in the various gardens we're surrounded by in our neighborhood. Michael and I have been making an effort to walk (
at least) and hour every single day, sometimes more. We've been soaking up the sun and being outdoors as much as possible. Well, except for today. Too hot for the mister and way more than "stifling". Hee
This week has been spent buried in the studio, finalizing the sketches for the upcoming children's poetry book I'm illustrating - Ladybug! Ladybug! Hopefully, I'll be able to share at least the cover with you this weekend. It's a beautiful collection of children's poems about ladybugs, written by the lovely, Charlotte Rains. The expected release is July 2016. Eek!
It's a lovely time of year! Thanks for the update!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is! :)
DeleteLooking forward to seeing the Ladybug! Ladybug! artwork! And good for you both for getting that walk in daily! It's so important and we always mean to do it more often that the few times a week that we do, especially at this time of year. Where does the time go? :)
ReplyDeleteHi Nicolas! Thank you so much for popping in. I must do a better job and getting around to visit your lovely blog, as well as, others. Please do forgive me! Hope you're doing well and having a good week. :)
DeleteIt has already reached triple digit weather here in Arizona, Alexandra. Sadly, I won't be taking any walks, short or otherwise. Please remember me when you take your lovely walks in cool Colorado!
ReplyDeleteYour sketches are absolutely fabulous. I feel so blessed to have found you. And just in time to illustrate, Ladybug! Ladybug! We will definitely be keeping our fingers crossed for a July release date!
Ohhhh! You can keep those temps. haha We'll certainly think of you. It's been up in the mid 80's the past few days. Next week, high 90's, they're saying. Bah! ;) I feel the same about you! Hope you're having a wonderful week.
DeleteSoaking up the sun - aah, one of my favorites! July - that's not long to go at all. Hope we get to see cover, too.
