Coloring Books

I've been working on a new series of coloring books for Dover Publications and the first one has just come out this week: Color and Cook CUPCAKES. This was a really fun project to do because of course everyone loves cupcakes! Doing a coloring book is very much like doing a "dummy", the 32 pages of sketches an illustrator draws when first starting a children's book. I planned out the coloring book just like I plan out a book, but in this case I didn't go to the next stage of working on the pictures in color. This time I'm leaving that for kids to do! 

Added bonus: at the end of the coloring book are my recipes for cupcakes: chocolate, vanilla, carrot, and applesauce along with 4 different frostings to go with them. I'm pretty proud of these recipes - they are easy and delicious, if I don't say so myself!

CUPCAKE Stickers will also be out any day now. Color and Cook PIZZA will be out in May. I've been working on more in the series, and sent in the black and white line art for another one about Christmas Cookies just this week.
