thumbnailing moonbeams

thumbnailing moonbeams

“moonbeams” is short for Moonbeams and Oops!, a children’s book I started writing and illustrating in Margaret’s book class this past fall. I thought it might be fun to kick off the year with a thumbnail of one of the pages and share a little of the process.

The thumbnail above is a lino-cut of a visual idea I’m playing with for Little Moon’s celestial ancestor’s who watch over her from above. (Little Moon is the main character, a courageous six year old with a heart bigger than the planet.) – Michele

I’ll gladly be sharing more on moonbeams the first week of each month as the book develops.
