(The return of) Friday Fan Art!

Finally! I know, I know…its been awhile…too long in fact. But with the breakneck speed with which I wrote and illustrated The Search for WondLa, and the hectic press surrounding the fall tour, I have had little time to organize and scan the AMAZING art sent to me over the past year. But wait no more dear readers, for I will be posting Friday Fan Art on a regular basis until the year's end. I want to kick things off with some favorites from a package of art sent to me by 13-year old (and fellow Pioneer Valley resident) Gabe.

You can see that Gabe is inspired by the Spiderwick books, but has now created his own characters, like Nallorhack the ogre:

…or the fiery King Gomkarke…

…Bruno & Lubilon, hobgoblins…

…or even this Northern Ebony Drake.

Keep up the great work, Gabe. I LOVE your imagination (and inking skills). I can't wait to see where you venture to with your fantastic work.
