Finished Work for Eco Ellie: Live, Love, Lead

This is the story of Eco Ellie (copyright Kellogg), an elephant learning about conservation. She and her grandma want to help humans know how to help the planet. I think the illustrations are pretty self-explanatory. The main character's color design is based on the plush toy that is intended to accompany the book. Cover Illustration.

Be a Leader.


Leave a small (mouse-size) carbon foot-print.

All works are copyright Kellogg. I ended up having to sign over all rights. Basically, I was doing work for hire, without knowing I was doing work for hire. I do have co-authorship. Live and learn, I guess.

Book Cover

My latest endeavor. This is a sample of the cover art for a book I'm illustrating. I know, what's with the elephants, right? Acrylic on Illustration board.
