There’s No Place Like Home

Hi, all of you Scribblers, Doodlers and Drawers!
With the holidays almost behind us we have a new topic for January.
There’s No Place Like Home!
Ah, Dorothy, such wise words, especially after the holiday rush.

January, the month the light begins to return, is a time to rest and relax and what better place to do that than at home. Whether in an easy chair, feather-lined nest, log, barn or bear den--home is where the heart is for all of nature.
Entries for "There's No Place Like Home" will be accepted until Jan. 31, 2011.

Happy New Year and Happy Scribbling!

It's a Nightmare Before Christmas!

Hello Everyone!

Thanks for checking out our new illustration blog. Our first challenge for illustration is:  "It's a Nightmare Before Christmas!" Take a trot down memory lane and draw upon your own childhood or your children's to explore this topic. From the long mall lines of clamoring kids waiting for Santa's lap to excited tiny tots asking every ten minutes, "How many more days--hours--minutes?" What's your interpretation? Have fun and--drop everything and draw! Entries will be accepted until December 21, 2010.

Also, as a note, hurry and check out the details for this Tomie dePaola SCBWI Illustrator Award:  http://www.scbwi.org/Pages.aspx/Tomie-dePaola-Award. Happy Holidays!
