Amgonnaitya!

Mar
Here is a new illustration that I’ve just finished for one of the projects I’ve been working in lately: a children’s book about monsters at home and how to not fear them. The working title is “Boos And Creaks” and it compiles a collection of illustrations and text about those annoying monsters that every kid fears and show up at any corner of the house. Every monster is being categorized and filed and I am also writing some suggestions and advices about how to deal with them and to not be scared about them anymore.
This particular creature is called “Amgonnaitya”: a monster that grows in fridges and pretends to swallow us whenever we open the door for food or for a drink. He is pretty pathetic because he doesn’t know there’s another silly monster living inside his mouth. I won’t tell much more about this so I don’t unveil the whole story about this pair.
I don’t know how long it’s going to take this project, probably several months to get it completed since this is a side personal project that I have to complete in my spare time. I hope to see it finished by the end of this year. By the way, I still don’t have a publisher for it so if you are one and you are interested, please contact me.
