Concept art illustration for The Do It All Machine - Originally conceived 2006, about a machine that can mimic any activity in a virtual world, but loses to the messiness and fun of carrying out the activity in real life.
While it was originally conceived about digital and/or virtual worlds vs. playing and creating in real life back then, I will be revisiting this story as, twenty years later, the themes are even more relevant than ever - with technologies that I could never have predicted at the time.
Original opening illustration for Nina's Phantom Friend. I replaced this illustration in the final book, because for me, the eventual image of Nina searching in the forest for her cat had more dramatic weight. It illustrated the concept of the seasons changing much more effectively, and the leaves blowing past her added mood and pathos to the scene.
Original illustration from Nina's Phantom Friend for when Masaccio the cat comes back as a ghost.
I replaced this illustration with the one of Nina eating an ice cream sundae. This happened after feedback from a friend's niece suggested that the image of a ghost cat - even her own - floating outside her bedroom window could potentially be too frightening for a child.
