We had to create illustrations for the cover and 3 inside pages of any children's story we wanted to. I chose something simple, Red is Best by Kathy Stinson. It's about a little girl who is completely in love with the colour red and tells her mother why she doesn't want to wear her yellow jammies, drink out a green cup, or wear her brown mittens, lol. The original illustrations stuck with me since I first read this story as a kid and I loved the simple, but completely perfect and fitting style. I also went with a simple style, but ended up with something a lot more cartoony. They are all 6 x 6 in pen and ink and coloured pencil.
