Finished my first drawing book

Journal Entry: Wed Jun 11, 2008, 4:40 AM
Sorry for the absence but I was quite busy.

Some time ago a german publisher contacted me. They had two authors/artists working on a drawing book about animal portraits and asked me if I could do 4 additional drawings for the book because they had pressure of time.
I better skip the story what happened after I sent in my first drawing because it might sound too much like bragging but I ended up doing the whole book on my own, which is now finished. (Because of the advertisement in advance there is still another author named on pages like Amazon and co.)

It is a german book about animal portraits with colored pencil (publication date: August 2008) and aimed at beginners, so don't expect any photorealism here. But I am convinced that I will do a book about photorealistic stuff in the near future. I already have the assignment for two similar books (already working on the second one).
So please excuse me if I am a bit late answering comments or if my image upload is rarely.

    Du hast wirklich eine sehr tolle gallerie! und dein Stil gefällt mir extrem gut. vor allem dass du (ich hoffe ich habe das richtig bemerkt) auf normales papier zeichnest und nicht auf bristol! Echt Hut ab!

    I accidentally replied to my own comment and not yours. I was not sure if you would be notified so I hide my answer and wrote it again as a reply to your comment.

    Now me reckon this thing gets really confusing... :brushteeth:

    Anyway: Save the snails!!!

    Poor snails!

    I don't know what you mean. Am I too slow answering or do you want a computer sent (for some strange reason via some unfortunate snails)?
