That's pretty much it for now –– books are a lot of work, and I am happy to be pouring as much of myself as possible into them as long as I'm lucky enough to be working on them! I am working on a super top secret second book! It's on another science-y topic, and it'll have a similar scope to What We See in the Stars but is a little more "down to Earth," we'll say (vaguest hint ever). I have a little ceramic plate as my palette, and a little vase of water to dip my brush in a folded paper towel I use to wipe off excess water and paint from my brush bristles, and paper. Nowadays my process is so much more analog. I started using gouache paint about three years ago, and it just clicked for me that I wanted to illustrate with paint on paper and eliminate the computer from the equation (at least as much as is sensible –– I still have to digitize my images in order to submit them to my clients and publishers). That involved a lot of scanning and digital color and Photoshop, which yielded an end product I liked but was just not quite the creatively fulfilling process I always wanted. So, Whose Poop Is That?, that you mentioned above, was the last major project I illustrated in an old style I no longer work in. LTPB: What tools do you use to create your illustrations? Compared to other illustrations you’ve done, the ones in this book are almost monochromatic –– what was it like using such a limited color palette?
