<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hello Everyone! It has been such a long time...over a year! I have been posting more over on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/bethannemarescaillustrations...check it out!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, my first book, "Megan Owlet" was published last spring...which has been a fabulous experience! It is so exciting and rewarding to see your words and pictures in a book that others enjoy!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, hopefully I will be getting back to more painting and posting here!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Hello Everyone! It has been such a long time!! I am so happy to let you all know that my book, Megan Owlet, will be out in April and I am so excited! I spent most of last summer painting and painting and painting the illustrations for the book. It was hard work but so much fun at the same time!! It is now available on amazon and Barnes and Noble for pre-orders!! I am so thankful to Sky Pony Press and my fabulous editor, Julie Matysik for her endless kindess and patience with all of my "newbie" questions!! You can check out the book here: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/1632204045/ref=cm_sw_r_fa_dp_AmEnub1N3DEDT">http://www.amazon.com/dp/1632204045/ref=cm_sw_r_fa_dp_AmEnub1N3DEDT</a>. <br />
<br />
So anyway...here's my submission for Illustration Friday's word "toy"...Dragon and his best buddy, Hedgehog love their new skateboards!!!<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As we move on to the new year, it is a good time to<i> reflect </i>on the past year. My husband and I always go over our top 10 moments of the year...some of ours this year were ...our family skiing day with our cousins, my 8 year old's game winning hit in a baseball playoff game where the coach carried him off the field while the team chanted his name, and a super fun beach day where the waves were huge and out of the ocean scrambled a baby seal to rest on the sand right next to us! </span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was a good year! Now, on to the next!! May it be filled with many more wonderful moments like these!!!</span></div>

I cannot explain how good it feels to be back doing Illustration Friday! It has been a long time! This, I originally sketched for IF's word<i> </i><b>jungle</b><i>,</i> but didn't have time to paint it. SO, when I saw this week's word, <b>lush</b>, I made sure I had time to paint it and get it on my blog! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As for me, I am back teaching kindergarten part-time, still working on my book...interest in my the dummy...so keep your fingers crossed for me! Hopefully I will get back to painting regularly now that summer is over and the kids are back at school! Thanks for stopping by!</div>
