The Hungry Snails
Illustration Process
I begin my illustration process with rough ideation sketches, first for main characters and then for scene composition.

Little by little, I refine my crazy doodles into polished illustrations.
I do this for the interior spreads, the front and back covers, and anywhere else that needs artwork, placing text last. I check it over 5 billion times and at last submit my files for print. All this results in a beautiful book:
