Summer Reading Fun!
Hey and howdy Scribblers!
School is almost out and it's time for Summer Reading Fun! Remember all the great books you read as a kid when school let out? Far-off lands, animal adventure, thrillers and chillers. What summer reading fun art or cover can you come up with?
While you're at it, don't forget to pamper yourself and feed your artistic inner child. Get out and participate in the Michigan State Park's Park & Read Program. Get out and read a good book under a grand tree in a hammock! www.michigan.gov/dnr
Check out your local library for volunteer reading days or used book sales. Head on down, up, or over to your local Indie book store for a book and booksigning. Mark your calendar now to visit the Kids Read Comics event at the Ann Arbor District Library on July 7th & 8th.
Get inspired, get illustrating and get into Summer Reading!

May's Theme- Picture (Book) Perfect!
Happy National Children's Book Week, May 7-13th! In honor of this week, this month's theme celebrates what we SCBWI-Michigan Illustrators do--children's books.
This month, post art you are working on, have finished, want feedback on, or whatever you like, that speaks volumes on your children's book. Picture book, graphic novel, chapter book or board. Covers in color or black and white spreads or spot illustrations. It's your choice, it's up to you, it's your book!
This month, we illustrators (and writers) will once again get together at the SCBWI-MI Spring Conference in Grand Rapids to learn, share and network. I hope to see many of you there--I was a last minute sign-up myself and am so glad that I did with such talent showing up, Jim Di Bartolo and Brett Helquist, to give us Scribblers an inspirational pep talk.
Looking forward to seeing your Picture Perfect postings! (Deadline May 31, 2012)

Earth Day 2012 by: Dana Atnip
This is a piece that I illustrated many years ago; airbrush and gouache. I call it "One World". I wanted to depict how all animals are a part of our planet Earth. In retrospect, I guess I could have added a human!
Happy Earth Day 2012!
