"Lindsey Mary Loves to Bake"- The Storyboard process...

"Lindsey Mary Loves to Bake",  is a story in-the-making inspired by my brother's daughter, Lindsey Mary.  This book will be told through the eyes of Lindsey Mary, a creative, imaginative, and fun-loving little girl. The book began with the idea of a playful, fun book about Lindsey's adventures, into a children's cookbook about Lindsey sharing her baking experience with Grandma.  I am excited to share my process through this blog as ideas and illustrations progress through my thesis process for graduate school. Follow along to see what happens!

BELOW ARE SOME OF THE BEGINNING THUMBNAIL SKETCHES OF MY IDEA...

I am now in the process of choosing a few illustrations to refine for my graduate thesis and portfolio from this story.  I do enjoy "Page 4", Lindsey Mary 
rising up from bed, anticipating the excitement awaiting her visit with Grandma.  This illustration might seem somewhat "cliche",  however I am going to try and find a unique way to make this full page spread stand out over the others.  We shall see!

I have a few examples of illustrations I am working on for my portfolio below.  Any feedback would be much appreciated!
