Mona & Gordy

This is for my book illustration class.  It's a story I've been working on since the beginning of the semester.  It's inspired by my brother and his 3 (?) year old self (I don't know specifics, I wasn't alive when it happened!).  I switched his place with the little toy he lost down the drain of the tub... now the toy is Gordy.  I usually only draw little dudes and I wanted to draw a little lady for a change, although you can't tell by the cover. I'm still working on the interior, which I was supposed to be doing first but I didn't.  Life is full of surprises!  Like finding 20 dollars on the sidewalk, which has never happened to me yet but I keep looking!

The back flap is just nonsense.  I had to write it for the sake of having a bio.  I wanted to take up some space because "Phoebe Thomas draws little things and has a dog named Louise", is just not long enough.  Also, I like to write silly things.  Did you notice that I wrote about Louise but I'm holding a cat?  Silly dumb accident!

Sometime soon (...... maybe..) I'll have some inside spreads to show and maybe I'll share the story and also maybe not!  More surprises and lots of maybes!
