Off to School

My lady and I are kicking around an idea for a book. The drawings may not be fine art, but here are a couple of strong possibilities we are looking at for representing the imaginary world of a young boy. The actual sizes of each drawing is about 11" x 7-1/2" (28 cm x 18 cm). They are a combination of good ol' coloured pencils and technical drawing markers. I think they are fun

These are awesome, as always Kramus - i seriously think you could get into having them in a smaller Kid's Furniture/ decorating gallery. They are so whimsical ...

awesome pictures... all you need now is a good story to go with them...

have you thought of calling some children's publishers? They may have authors in search of artists.

Very good! Fantastic use of what one of my instructors would have called "hallucinated color." The only thing that would make these even better would to put in scenery/backgrounds.

Thankyou for the look-see folks
Regarding the children's publishers route, I've actually picked up a package from a Childrens Publishing Group, and am culling the listings in order to know what sort of master mailing (snail mail for some, email for others) I need to come up with in order to let the possibly interested publishers know I exist. I sent a bunch of emails out a while back, but upon further research it appears I need to target and refine my mailings more.

I like that phrase "hallucinated color" Mister Coaster Backgrounds would come when it seems it would be worth my time to invest lots and lots of hours into these drawings. These are prototypes showing main characters right now.
And Shani - I like the eyelashes too. I may add them to the slender dinosaur now that you've brought it to my attention. Thanks.

If this ever flies I will be telling TFP for sure. And I would be glad to figure out how to get people hooked up with copies Meanwhile, can I interest you in some fine art? (http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthread.php?t=112832)

shoot, forget a publisher, that nifty thing called iBook will do all the work for you so you can get yourself started pre-publisher.

But no less, love them. super adorable!

I can easily see these in a children's book that people buy because the art is actually really good.
