Goose, Goose, Duck

The sobbing fellow in this illustration does not reflect my experience at the NESCBWI conference. I had a really nice time! This painting was part of my homework assignment for an illustration academy I signed up for. Walking away from the conference with new ideas, great feedback, and a great big high from meeting so many talented people in person. It will be a great experience for me to draw on in the future! ;)
