The subversive nature of Fairy Tales is something that I've
always been drawn to. What better way to highlight the good and evil in
human nature than a story for children? In 2013, I decided to do
something a little more ambitious...perhaps too ambitious. While I'd
still be making a calendar featuring the characters from Life With
Girls dressed as characters from fairy tales, and calling it my "poor
man's portfolio, it was a way that I could offer 12
high quality illustrations for a very reasonable price. I also
approached several friends who are writers to retell each of those
stories, so that I could collect them in a book with concept drawings,
title designs, and more traditional fairy tale illustrations included as
well.
