It's been eons since I last drew Grimsley and with pencils. I've missed the two a lot lately, so I'm beginning my journey back to the way things used to be done, ten years ago.

A week has passed since rowing off to my Island.

What have I done? Well, some things.

I'm honoured to be the artist of this poster for ONCE UPON A TIME International Storytelling Festival - an online initiative for kids around the world to read to each other. Learn more and maybe get your kid to join? :O

I get this species of art question so often that I now think it's worth making a blog post to answer it (for posterity). The question usually goes something like this:

"How did you find your style of art?"

Which is a valid question. Unfortunately, this is a question with extremely vague and mundane answers. Note: these answers are very rooted to my particular development as an artist, though bits and pieces can be applied generally.

A month ago I opened up suggestions for topics to discuss on my blog. Thanks to friends and fans, I've quite a treasure-trove of ideas for future posts. (I'm still taking in more ideas btw)
