illustrator - portfolio - Aardema, John - Danny the Hermit Crab in Hawaii-This painting is from a book I illustrated called Danny the Hermit Crab. I just got my copies in the mail and they look great (If I do say so myself).
illustrator - portfolio - Aardema, John - zion national park junior rangers handbook-Next time you go to Zion National Park out in Utah, pick up one of these for your kid. And even if you don’t have a kid, pick one up anyway—they’re fun!

I illustrated the whole book (20 illustrations in all), and had a great time with art director Sandy Bell—she was terrific to work with!

I’m very happy with the color palette—it’s very southwestern. I also got to design three characters that appear periodically throughout the book.
   
John Aardema
After ten years working as an art director in both children's and parenting magazines, I've decided to step into children's illustration full-time. When I'm not working on projects for my clients, I write and draw my own book dummies. "Claude Claude the Vampire Moth" won first place in the Smart Writers 2006 Write It Now Competition in the Dummy Book category. Yay, me!
