    My first Art Book Cover!!

    Friday, September 28, 2007, 08:42 AM [General]

    Hello everyone!!
    This is my very first book cover art i have illustrated for
    a children's sci-fi/fantasy book How to Create a Superhero


    written by the lovely and multi talented Jenni Mills http://members.enchantedfolk.com/astraldreamer

    (who is also a member here)
    and illustrated by the lovely and talented artist Lily Machin

    http://pickledpixie.deviantart.com/

     

    The book is available for purchase from Lulu.com
    http://www.lulu.com/content/1109629


    for only $17.50

    I illustrated the cover a year ago worked with pastels, color pencils and acrylic.
    I don't often do Sci-fi art it's definitely not one of my styles but i couldn't resist
    not illustrating the book cover once i read the story, Jenni is an amazing writer
    she tells a tale of a young boy who finds himself with superpowers trying to
    Save the world from havoc.

    If you grew up with the Harry Potter series and are a fan you will definitely love
    This book, it's a page turner and a book children and adults of all ages will enjoy.

    Books also make a perfect
    Christmas gift for children who love tales of fantasy and sci-fi.

    It was my pleasure working with these 2 lovely Australian
    ladies and friends Jenni Mills and Lily Machin on this book project
    and feel honored to be part of it.


    Thank you so much for looking and freading have a wonderful weekend everyone :)
    love
    ~Kat~

    ~Do it Anyway~

    Thursday, September 27, 2007, 07:11 PM [General]

    ~Do it Anyway ~


    People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;
    Forgive them anyway.

    If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
    Be kind anyway.

    If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies;
    Succeed anyway.

    If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
    Be honest anyway.

    What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
    Build anyway.

    If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
    Be happy anyway.

    The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
    Do good anyway.

    Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
    Give the world the best you've got anyway.

    You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
    It was never between you and them anyway.

    This is my all time favorite poem
    and was written by Mother Teresa,
    it is still engraved on the wall
    of her home for children in Calcutta India.

     

    Thought i share a special poem i love and wish you

    all ahead a lovely weekend :)

    *hugs*
