Time to share a bit of the artwork from Night Prints! This is where we start our journey…
Happy book birthday to Night Prints! It was so much fun illustrating these evening scenes for this book. It’s perfect for the small adventurer and nature lover!

Another Moraine Lake inspired illustration! A slightly different version of this will be released as a puzzle later this coming summer!
Another mountain. Kananaskis ❤️
A break in a thunderstorm. The Monarch Ramparts.
A watercolour study from a trip to Egypt Lake! Next time I’ll go a little lighter with the sketch. This was right before the thunderstorm rolled in! ⚡️
I spent some time scanning in studies from my watercolour sketchbooks the other weekend. The left is from a trip to the Tonquin Valley. On the right is a hill on the way to Nigel Pass.

When taking Eric on his first backpacking trip, we woke up to a frosty morning. Those muted cool colours before the sun came up were perfect. Hated the cold - worth the views?
When I received the manuscript for Night Prints, I was so delighted to see @kariallenwrites.bsky.social had included opossums!
Zorn palette studies! Limited color palette using Yellow Ochre, Cad Red, Ivory Black, and Titanium White.
