I always loved illustrated books. When I'm in a bookstore it doesn't take long and I'm in the children's book section. Secretly, I dreamed of becoming a picture book illustrator and I started by drawing cartoons just for fun.

| This is the cabin where I drew the first 60 pages of my cartoon book. |
The cartoons turned into watercolour illustrations. Below are a few pages from the picture book When the Trees Crackle with Cold: A Cree Calendar. The book is inspired by my friend Bernice's stories of growing up in a small northern community - just like the one I live in now. The book is available through www.ynwp.ca or your bookstore.
The illustrations for my latest book Fox and Bear are made out of reused paper and cardboard. Here the first two pages.
Please contact me if you are interested in buying reproductions or original illustrations.
