Greetings Dinofans! It has been a while since our last post, but things are busy at the Dinosaur Ranch. Finally though I got some time together so I could do another Dino Doodle... and it's reproduced here in this post.
Some may not know that Bradley and the Dinosaur is available in French. Perfect for some Canadians! Or anyone who is bilingual, or anyone who is French, or anyone who is learning French. Do you know, when I learned to speak German, I started with reading children's books? (like Max und Morriz, or Post fur den Tiger).
For sure, there will be someone in your life who would love a copy as a special gift! :0).
If not, why then, they may enjoy the joke in this picture that I drew. You can send it to them, or the link on Instagram. A big 'Thank You' to Marie le Gouellec Dashicourt (she's French!) for helping me find the perfect joke for the image.
What other news? Well I'm still painting watercolours, and practising drawing with digital art - mainly with Illustrator here. I've set myself a goal of October for getting the next book finished. Ohh.. I really am biting my lip because I soooo want to talk about it... but I maybe so slow getting it out there, that I don't really want the idea to be out there before the book is :0). But I'm sure you will love it. So I'd better just get on and paint! That's all that's holding me back.
Well, that, and getting the Second Edition of Bradley and the Dinosaur ready (available soon!) and the German translation done for it too....
I have also entered Bradley and the Magic Carpet into the Story Monsters Ink Purple Dragonfly Awards competition - so fingers crossed - we might win something! (Even if it's a purple sticker!)
Till the next time, have a great weekend!
Julian
