Funny Lice

I did an illustration for the July issue of Revista Saúde about a new treatment for lice.When the designer first offered me the assignment, I asked her if I could draw a funny lice, because lice are so disgusting that they at least have to be funny (that's what I think). I'm happy to say she said yes to that, and once again I felt so grateful for being an illustrator, doing something that I honestly love and that allows me to have this kind of amusing professional conversation! I don't have the image of the magazine page but here it goes:

Québec en Clichés

Here's a catalog the Association of Illustrators from Quebec produced this year to share the work of some of its members. The theme was the clichés people often associate with Quebec. Mine was "skidoo", which is a mix between a sled and a jet ski, created here to help Quebeckers face all the snow we have here. Take a look at a pdf for the entire book. Also, this book was directed for the children's publishing market.

 

And those are different clichés from other illustrators that I like a lot:

 Raton Laveur by Christine Battuz

 Ruelle by Josée Bisaillon

 Ours Polaire by Annick Gaudreault

João Ganhão

Here's a book I illustrated and designed for a Brazilian publishing house called Fino Traço Editora. The book was written by Maurilo Andreas and tells the story of a little boy who has serious angry management issues until he falls in love and everything changes. Love is the answer ♥

Sneak peek...

Something that I've worked on but is not yet published. soon!

A collection of princesses

Girls always ask me to draw princesses. Sometimes I ask them to draw me a princess back. Here's a collection of those beautiful drawings:

Revista Saúde

Here's an illustration I did for Saúde Magazine. The article is about the right size and position of a child's backpack.

 

 

Chirp Fun magazine

That's a new illustration I made for Chirp Fun Magazine. It has a bunch of activities kids can do outdoors during summertime.

Promo mailer

 

 

  

My new promotional material for spring! Once again I'm really satisfied with the work Moo provided. The quality of the printing is amazing, and this time I did this round stickers that have a glossy finish. Love it! 

Crazy faces

Here's another activity I did with the children at the daycare. This is what I gave them:

 

 

So, they had to color, cut and assemble the face. The result was even more funny and crazy then what I had imagined! Take a look at what they did:

 

I love how they colored each tooth with a different color. And also the position of the ears. It looks kind of bizarre overall...but I like it a lot!

Activity with the kids

This month I had the opportunity to create and apply an art activity with a group of children from 4 to 5 years old. That's what I did:

So, they had to complete the drawing, color, cut and then assemble the flower. As I expected they did a great job! Children have an unexpected and imaginative way of looking at things that adults can't anticipate. This activity will be a part of a bigger project I'm working on. I found out that it makes me really happy to be a part of the creative process and to work side by side with children as an illustrator and as an educator. It's one of those moments in your life when something clicks inside your head and life starts to make more sense, if you know what I mean...but anyway here's what they did:

 I love how they assembled the parts differently, mixing leaves and petals and using unexpected colors. I will post some more of this activities I'm working on.
