As of now, I'm officially a published illustrator! I was recently contracted to to do over a dozen illustrations for a children's book called "The Elf Bully." The original title was "Getting Santa's elf on the Shelf." That, of course, had to be changed to avoid association with "Elf on a Shelf." That also called for a new cover to replace the one below.
Relatively speaking, it was a quick project. Initially scheduled for 2 weeks, it wound up taking about 4. The time-frame was actually rather appropriate since the project essentially paid my rent. hehe
