Hello & welcome!
My name is Maggie Griess, the intrepid author/illustrator of this blog site. Scattered on these pages are the scenes and characters I have created while studying the interesting topic of KidLit.
My posts will feature my thoughts, materials I have tried , books I like , courses I have taken, my photography and my attempts to create a Society 6 site, and of course images of my artwork as I create them.
My interests are: KidLit, drawing , watercolours... I love splashing around with colour! Sketchbook Pro, is an easy program I enjoy, I love collecting paintbrushes...I have over 50! Photography of all things interesting that grab my attention. Other interests are, gardening, baking, watching critters...some more tame than others, pizza, Cheesies and coffee, lots of it!
Every day will find me in a tiny, crowded bedroom/art studio among papers, paintbrushes, watercolour trying out a new paint, developing a character, trying out story ideas or studying a new course related to creating books for children.
