Fall Mini Series- Acorn

This is an ATC size painting of one of my very favorite things... the acorn. Every fall I become slightly obsessed with them. Last year was the worst! Just ask my friends and family.
 Anyways, you can purchase this original piece that is the first in a fall mini series. This 2.5 by 3.5 illustration was done with watercolor, colored pencil, and ball point pen. This piece, including shipping, is $10.  If interested you may contact me at juliehammond@earthlink.net . Paypal only please.
Love to know what you think. Thank you!

IF- Atmosphere

The atmosphere in the classroom was thick with anticipation as Harley volunteered to read... 

Find out why in the September Issue of Guardian Angel Kids.

 I didn't write the story that goes with this illo. but a very talented Ms. Ann McDuffie did! 

A story I wrote

Here is an illustration for a story I wrote based on an event that happened in Haiti. You see, my friend Jim recently went there and came back with some great stories and pictures.

Love to know what you think of this piece. It's a little different than the others I've done. Thoughts?

My donation to Ripple

So this is my donation to Ripple. I'll post a link to the listing once I know it. I believe it will be $10 that will go to the clean up of the BP oil spill. This is an Artist Trading Card so it's small but says a lot. I'm very excited to be a part of this effort. If you have donated or will be donating please post a link to your listing. I'd love to see it.

E- Pals illustration for Guardian Angel Kids

Here is another piece I did for Guardian Angel Kids magazine. Haven't heard of them? Check them out! They have games, activities, stories and videos! It's a free e-magazine for kids. This illustration will be featured with a story in the August issue.

My illustration was made by scanning in a pen and ink drawing then colored in with Photoshop.

IF- Giant

Sing- Happy Birthday to you. Your cake is bigger than you! You're wearing a party hat. But you still feel so blue.

Poor little Prince Pete, sure he has a giant birthday cake and he lives in a castle but he is all alone. Couldn't his parents have at least hired some friends to come and join in this celebration? Poor little birthday boy.

IF- Satellite (a.k.a. The New Kid)

So the new kid was a bit mmm... odd but Mom said everyone that's not a local Satellite 64ian looks different. Well, at least we both like War of the Worlds. That's something we have in common. Earthlings are so weird!
