High hopes for 2026.... That the story Leticia sent me years ago will be her debut picture book as author/illustrator next Christmas.

Whoops! Had a busy Thursday and missed #kidlitartpostcard day! My name is Aislinn Hird, I'm a recent graduate from Pratt Institute's illustration program, and I am seeking representation. This piece is from a book that I wrote and made the dummy for this fall, "Bertram's Big Bower Day."

Re-sharing this illustration because it fits right into the #scbwidrawthis theme, "OOPS!" This is a spread from "Bertram's Big Bower Day," a picture book about a satin bowerbird that overcomes his social anxiety and perfectionism by leaning into spontaneous kindness. #scbwiillustrators #scbwi
