I'm big into contests. I find that they motivate me to experiment with new art techniques and to sharpen up manuscripts. Over the years I have entered many illustrators' and writers' contests. I've lost more competitions than I've won, but the experience is always worthwhile. This is a piece I did for an SCBWI Writer's Day illustration contest. The theme was "Happily Ever After with Books." I won runner up!
