Birds + Bees + Kids: Book Covers and Design
I was thrilled to work with Amy Lang of Birds + Bees + Kids on the design and layout of her first two books. One is a journal for young people to use to ask their parents questions that they may be too embarrassed to ask in person, and the other is a guide and workbook for parents to use to clarify their values about sex, love and relationships. Both books feature the Birds + Bees + Kids "bird and bees" illustrated logo that I designed for Amy, and the journal has an extra treat: a flipbook!
This was a wonderful project to work on and the books are fantastic. If you're wondering how to start "the talks," I highly recommend these books.

Alejandro Escovedo
My pal Sara B had a birthday this week and is a big big big fan of Alejandro Escovedo. This is her birthday painting. Happy Birthday!
I'm trying out a very toothy paper which looks very velvety. And I love any reason for juicy hand lettering.
