Looking for Loons Process Illustrations
I’ve uploaded a some of process photos of the Looking for Loons illustrations. They can be found here – you can either by click through them one at a time, or view them as a slideshow (where you can see them a lot larger).
Loads of Launched Loons (and Mice)
I met author Jennifer Lloyd at the launch for our book Looking for Loons this afternoon. She also launched her previously published book One Winter’s Night with illustrator Lynn Ray. She read both books to a full house and an audience of attentive children.
This is One Winter Night illustrator Lynn Ray, compositionally left-of-center (I hope she doesn’t mind.)

As well as ten scarf-wearing mouse toys and a prop loon, there were loon cookies…
and mouse cookies…
A big thank you to Christianne for the fantastic venue and organising and to Dimiter for the launch.
