CHILDREN'S BOOK ILLUSTRATION

Illustration for children's books.

The first several examples show my illustration and layout design work from "The Adventures of Papa Lemon's Little Wanderers", a book series written by Minneapolis author, Lehman Riley. They're based on his grandfather and celebrate multicultural history.

Afterwards are personal projects I'm working on with my wife, Jena.
