I liked drawing the expression on the squirrel sunk in the water.

Originally, he was supposed to be a walrus. Then (fortunately) at the last second I looked it up just to be sure, and found out that leopard seals are the ones that eat penguins. Turns out walruses (walrusi? If not it should be) don't eat them because they don't live where penguins do. Yay research!

On the bright side, it's hard to be disappointed that you're not facing a monster.

I wish my house had a trap door.

Or at least battle penguins.

About the Lunch Note Project

The whole thing started because my daughter likes me to write notes to put in her lunch bag, and I found out I was terrible at it. I could only think of so many ways to write “Have a good day at school!” or “Enjoy your lunch!” without ending up writing the same note every day.

So it occurred to me, that if I wrote a story, the note would have to be different every day. And, since I work as an illustrator and can’t do anything – anything – without scanning it in, I decided to put these up here.

After quite some time, her story came to an end. And then her younger brother said, "Can I have a story too? With lizards? And ninjas? And swords that fly by themselves?"

So I said yes.
