illustration - frankenberry-I had a little fun with this image. I saw a picture of an old box of Franken Berry cereal, and realized that he had fingernails that look like strawberries. "Who does his nails?" I thought. Well, he does, of course! - Aardema, John

Next four illustrations from John Aardema:
illustrator - portfolio - Aardema, John - pussageno-Of course, Papageno is the bird-catching character from Mozart's "The Magic Flute". I must tell you that inspiration for this picture also came from Nick Cave's Soundsuits. How many birds do you know? A robin? A black-capped chickadee? A blue jay? A red-headed woodpecker? An owl? A red-winged blackbird? A parakeet? A parrot? A quail? A grackle? A cockatoo? A toucan? A sparrow? A pheasant? A cardinal? A bluebird? A kingfisher? An oriole? A purple finch? A yellow finch? A scarlet tanager? A creeping nuthatch? A ruby-throated hummingbird? See, I bet you know a lot more than you thought you did!
illustrator - portfolio - Aardema, John - the wizard's chair-Happy Halloween! What happens when a girl wanders into the Wizard King’s haunted house, puts on his hat, and sits in his chair? I have no idea, but it doesn’t look like anyone in the house does either. I’m not sure, but I think a story is starting to form. I was only making a painting for my October postcard, but it looks like I’ve got a children’s book along with it, to boot!
illustrator - portfolio - Aardema, John - claude claude the vampire moth-This is Claude Claude. He's the main character in my picture book dummy--Claude Claude, The Vampire Moth-- which won first place in the 2006 SmartWriters.com book dummy division! Yay, me!
illustrator - portfolio - Aardema, John - claude's class-This is Claude Claude's classroom. He's not there because he's skipping school. He must be celebrating the fact that I won first place in the 2006 SmartWriters.com book dummy division.
