Looks engaging! Props to you!

Good for you! I've been clearing space in my brain for that dreaded task. Must be done.😬

Sweet squirrels!

Cute copepods and aces axolotls!

I almost missed #KidLitArtPostcard Day! I'm currently working on picture books. I’ll be available around the end of the month. Also interested in MG, chapterbooks, novels, board books and readers, and representation. These kids were on a cover of a school music book. #kidlitart #kidlitartist

Nice design !

Yes!

I like your site! Congrats! And thanks for showing some of our Step into Reading series in your section with Ellen Vandenberg! Illustrating those was fun!

I need an update, too! Btw, Happy New Year and a survivable February!

Nice!

Kite flyer.... what is it though? Mosquito? Hmmmm. Poop fly is also great.

The orange felon says he doesn’t know why Tulsi Moscow Gabbard was at the raid on a Georgia election office and Tulsi says she was ordered by him to be there.

This treasonous diabolical scandal is growing bigger by the day and the American state media have no interest in it.

Love the decorative patterning and the characterization of the horses!

An illustration by Angela Matteson of a park scene with a dala horse mom sitting on a bench next to a knitting owl watching her youngest boy ride off on his scooter while big sister is looking up at Mom saying, "Ma! mama! ma! Ma!", and another dala sister is walking on wood logs. A bird couple and a squirrel are on the path.

Taking a moment to pause with a cuppa while also keeping an eye on all we care about on this #KidLitArtPostcard day!
I’m Angela, a snow-covered illustrator ready for more #kidlit projects!

Illustration of a fall orchard. A young girl is climbing an apple ladder and notices a very large dinosaur hiding in the half-bare tree. Her mom is nearby taking a video with her phone, distracted by a rare european cuckoo bird in another tree. The young girl is saying "Mom..." A bag of apples is on the ground. Art by Gina Perry www.ginaperry.com Rep'd by Sean McCarthy.

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard Day! Today's post is based on a true story! Not the dinosaur, but the appearance of a European Cuckoo bird in New Hampshire this past autumn. I'm open for new book projects mid-year. Rep'd by Sean McCarthy. www.ginaperry.com #kidlit

An illustration of a night scene in a forest of bamboo shows a flying Panda wearing a little green cap, green belt with a sprig of bamboo tucked in it, surrounded by four other pandas of various ages looking up at him. A little fairy, also known as Tinkerbell, enters the scene to follow him. Can you guess his name?

It's #KidLitArtPostcard Day! Can you guess this character's name? (hint: he won't grow up). I'm currently working on picturebooks; but I'm also available for MG, chapterbooks, novels, and readers. Energetic, expressive animal characters in nature are my jam!

Terrorizing children has been a hallmark of white supremacy longer than mask wearing

"Slavery was real"

Tiny sign at the base of a brick wall that, until yesterday, held panels about the people enslaved by George Washington.

Presidents House, Philadelphia.

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

Congrats, Gina!
