I think Uchenna is so cool as a character! She might appear to be angry here but believe me she should be!

THE MADRE DE AGUAS takes place in beautiful Havana. My pen and ink won’t do it justice so while you read please imagine it colorful for me. ?

Jersey surely loves pastelito de guayaba which sounds yummy to me.

Professor Fauna is having strong Cuban coffee in this story that I’m curious to try to be honest.

The Madre de aguas in action. terrifying but super cool. Also we don’t have to worry about social distancing here because it’s just a drawing, come on!

This is about the same time the cover is taking place but done just in pen and ink.

How come I am not posting as often as before? Well, I should!. I’m working on several brilliant projects that I can’t share anything from “Yet” but the good news is Book 5 of THE UNICORN RESCUE SOCIETY: THE MADRE DE AGUAS OF CUBA is going to be out next Tuesday, the 12th of May. This time author Emma Otheguy will join Adam Gidwitz and take us to Cuba to help the legendary Madre de aguas, which you can see on cover. Or how I illustrated her to be precise. No Mythical Creatures Were Harmed in the Making of This Book.
I’ll be posting some teasers from the interior art.. No spoilers! ?
