I had a great time with the students at Waterville Primary School in Waterville, OH this week.

For my drawing demos, the students tell me what to draw.  They invent a character, tell me what problem the character is having, and an emotion the character is feeling.  I draw the image in a few short minutes, then three kids help me color it.

In this case, it’s a unicorn farting rainbows while her friend Frog gags:

Another drawing demo- a harp seal and a one-eyed dinosaur in UFOs, shooting lasers at each other:

We talked about nostrils, perseverance, determination and being willing to keep trying until it’s right.

Authors and illustrators traditionally sign the library wall…

Thanks for a great visit, Waterville Primary!
