Latest Book Cover Out!

I wanted to share the news of another book cover of mine out! Gail Boenning's Meandering Muses was published last week. This is our second project together. This time I did the cover AND the chapter illustrations. Gail has a lovely way of telling stories. It was wonderful working with her to make the drawings to go with her book.

A Book Cover!

My original drawing and the Wandering Words book cover from it

I’m excited to share the news - a commissioned drawing of mine is on a book cover!! What a thrill! It’s the first time I’ve had that kind of opportunity.

What an honor to have been asked by Gail Boenning to do the cover illustration for her book, Wandering Words, A Walk from A to Z! It was such a pleasure to work with her doing this drawing. It was a generous and gentle introduction into the world of cover illustration.

Gail’s dog Henrietta is on the cover. As a special connection to this project, I also have had a black dog named Henrietta in my life. She was our family dog growing up. It’s an uncommon name and I’m reminded of her each time I talk with Gail and see the book.

It’s pretty exciting to see the final result! I got my copy of Wandering Words last week.

Her book is now available from Amazon.

What moments of excitement do you have to share? I'd love to celebrate with you.
