Cover and Interior Illustration for Highlights Puzzlemania Book

So... every now and then the little kid in me gets all giddy because I get to work for one of the companies I grew up with.   Many a dentist's office visit I spent searching for hidden pictures in a Highlights magazine.  Here's a recent cover I got to create for an issue of a Highlights Puzzlemania book. The illustration also appears on the inside with a nearly identical version next to it with 20 differences to find.  Check out the pics below in case you're stuck in a dentist's office with nothing to do.

Find twenty differences on the next picture...

Find 20 differences from the previous pic!

Here's the original sketch with cropped areas indicated for cover and interior activity pages.

Junior Ranger Activity Book

Over the past few months a slew of  illustrations have been pumped out for the Junior Ranger Activity Book!  This is a book of games, mazes, puzzles etc that The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission is handing out as a freebie for young visitors to their parks.  As a child I used to love combing through Hi-lights magazine to do the picture searches, etc.  Kind of funny that I'm drawing them now.
