Comments: This is a personal piece that I painted digitally with the intent of having it printed on a large 40"x30" wrap canvas. (You can view photos of the physical canvas on my blog.) It will go over our fireplace and radiate warm fuzzies for years to come. =)

Ann Pilicer- My New Illustrated E-book has been Published!

2011-12-19T13:44:00.000-08:00

Hi Everyone, I have some exciting news to share with you! I have a new E-book, recently published by Utales.com. The title is "Pick me Polly", written by Heather Teckavec and illustrated by me.

About the book: Polly just loves being in the spotlight. If there's a special event, Pick-Me Polly wants to be at the center of it. But when Polly is picked to ride on the first and most important float in the town parade, she makes a shocking discovery; first place is not always the best place to be!

Here's the link to see the book, and here's a sneak-peak at the illustrations!

Hope you like what you see and will check it out.

Happy Holidays everyone and have a Happy New Year!
