“It’s Not Jack and the Beanstalk” One of my Favorite Pages.

| edwardiantaylor

“It’s Not Jack and the Beanstalk” is out now!!!  Written by Josh Funk and illustrated by yours truly.  One of my favorite spreads from the book was the title page. I wanted to establish right from the beginning Jack and Bessie’s friendship and to show them in a moment together before the story began. If you look really closely, you can see the silhouette of the Giant’s castle in the cloud shadows created by the moonlight. Also, there is a hidden fairy tale character in this spread. Probably the hardest one to find.

If you have not already purchased “It’s Not Jack and the Beanstalk”, its available now at your local bookstore.  Or you can purchase it on Amazon at this link  http://a.co/fFFuB3d

This weeks Colour Collective was Plaster Pink. Another strange dream I had was one about flamingo/vulture hybrid that attacks as a flock and when they run they create a cloud the makes them look like they’re one single creature. So this illustration was based off these strange and funny looking creatures. lol

Wind in the Willows Book Cover Mock Up

Two of my agents at the Bright Group asked me to participate in designing a cover from a list of stories.  Luckily “The Wind in the Willows” by Kenneth Grahame was on it.  I’ve always loved the book as a kid, and I’m now currently re reading it for my portfolio.  I’d love to one day get a chance to illustrate the entire book.  Maybe one day.10347095_10153489943674912_7756413572476786593_n
