Here is a recent illustration I did for the Books Section of Newsday announcing recommended reading for the Fall.
Unfortunately the page ended up being on a black and white spread so the illustration ran as seen below. Next to the B&W cover are some of the preliminary squirrel sketches I did. I wasn’t quite sure where I was going with the puffed out cheeks , they just reminded me of a squirrel. He looks like he’s looking for a place to spit something out. The tail with a body wave still looks interesting to me , I just think it draws your attention away from the books. Gary Rogers was the art director on the piece.
