Generations is a Christian organization focused on ”biblical family, discipleship, and education”. They hired me to illustrate a cover for a phonics textbook they were publishing. They had some existing mouse characters (a boy and a girl mouse) and wanted me to illustrate them in a family scene with the word balloon, ”Teach me to read God’s word”. It was my job to design a mom, dad, and baby that matched the existing characters.
Below is a peek into my process: Rough sketch, detailed sketch, and final illustration.
The curriculum is available here.
