Shine for the SCBWI Jan/Feb inspiration challenge:
The SCBWI Bulletin is in black and white but I did it originally in color, so here are both. I was remembering the Waldorf School lantern festivals that we use to take our daughters to.

Sneeze
My black and white illustration of Little Women won an honorable mention from Tomie dePaola last year. It was a challenge to have to use only black and white!
This is the 2013 First Prize winning illustration from Akiko White :

Digital Images: Which is larger, KB or MB?
Whenever I apply to a grant or project, I am always having to remember which is which with MB and KB's so that I can send the correct size digital image.
I thought I would write this out once and for all!
Byte=8bits
Kilobyte= KB=1,000 bytes
Megabyte= MB= 1,000,000 bytes= 100 KB's
Hope this helps anyone else with your applications!

The renowned illustrator Quentin Blake inspires me so much that I wanted to share this video for my first artist process entry. Here is an illustrator who doesn't seem to bother with the computer and doesn't need it! Mostly I love the movement and expression in his lines and ease of coloring seemingly without fuss. It is also a reminder to draw and redraw and redraw...
