Good day ladies & gents,
 
If you’ve taken a voyage though my website previously then, being the great observant people that you are, I’m sure you’ve probably noticed the “styles” or what-have-you that I’ve tried to embark upon.  In the past, as well as currently, I’ve enjoyed taking on different approaches to art-making so as to delve into those various unmapped corridors of my mind and open what creaky doors I can.  Recently I’ve done just this and have found these new doors to be somewhat, we’ll say, more colorful.
 
Lately I’ve been working with a fantastic online children’s book company called MeeGenius! and it’s been quite the adventure.  Adapting various classic children’s stories with my own visual ideas.  Just posted the other day was the latest story called Puss in Boots.


It’s about a self-determined family cat who’s given a pair of little leather boots and takes off on his own exciting adventures to help better the life of his young owner.  I had a great time working on it and it’s certainly a little out of the box for me.  If you’re curiosity is getting to you (and I hope it is) and you’d like to check it out (and I hope ya do) you can click right HERE!

You can also download the MeeGenius! App for your iPad or iPhone for those long journeys in the car with the little ones (though I imagine the kids may want a turn as well).  And of course one can also visit MeeGenius! online at www.meegenius.com to have a look at their other titles (if ya look hard enough you’ll maybe find one or two others I’ve been a part of).
 
Thanks all and talk with you soon!
 
-D
