Book 1 of The Weird Sisters series of chapter books written by Mark David Smith (Owlkids Books) is out this month (April 2022)! It is a super fun chapter book and a cute little package (designed so beautifully by Elisa Gutiérrez).
Rough layout to final spread
In this case, the original rough (“thumbnail”) drawings and the book’s final illustrated spread ended up being very close. It doesn’t often happen like this! Because I wrote and illustrated The House at the End of the Road, the picture creation and writing went hand-in-hand and I kind of developed both of them at the same time.
