Picturebookdad Unofficial review

You will not find this review on Picturebookdad but Ken was nice enough to allow me to print what he had to say about Why Am I Me?


Stephen,
I appreciate you interest in Picturebookdad.com.
I enjoyed Why Am I Me? I found it to be thoughtfully written and nicely drawn.
However, I feel it doesn't have quite enough dad-appeal to reach my target audience of reluctant-reader dads.
I hope you understand.
Best wishes,
Ken

I do/did understand I took shot, this book is the closest that I illustrated to what he looks for in picture books for his audience. But if you don't try you will never know.
It is a great site and I would suggest to go visit it often.

IF "FLUID"

This week’s challenge was
“Fluid”
What comes to mind when you think of that word?
Water was my first then air so as I was sketching out my drawing I realized I already did it back in 2008 the title is called “Sea Breeze” it was going to be used for a movie festival, unfortunately the only thing done to make the festival a reality was my artwork
Pen & Ink with water color
