It’s been a while since I posted. I’ve been really busy, behind the scenes, anywho!

My book release blog tour is in full swing. Check out the calendar schedule at https://www.wendymartinillustration.com/wordpress/2016/05/23/story-circle-book-release-blog-tour/.

I’m also signing contracts for some new books! I’ll tell you about them as soon as I can.

As you may know, I recently signed with Natalie Lakosil of the Bradford Literary Agency for representation as a book author/illustrator. She’s whipping my figurative butt into shape with a long list of new art for my portfolio as well as complete revisions of several book dummies. So that is taking up a lot of time, as you can well imagine.

And last, but not least, I’m doing final prep work for my first art show of the season. Sadly, the weather seems to be in a highly uncooperative mood, with rain most of today and scattered T-storms tomorrow. Sunday is forecast as sunny. But this is Missouri, T-storms can become hail storms or tornadoes in a blink of an eye. And Sunny on Sunday may be a pipe dream this soggy, soggy spring. I don’t think the yard will ever de-squishy.

Here are a few of the better life drawing sketches from the quick draws of last night.
