Don't think I ever posted about this here, but one of the biggest projects I've ever completed with this mural we did at an elementary school... 2.5 years in the making! If you're curious, you can read all about it here www.breenabard.com/blog/2024/9/...

I don't think I mentioned it here yet--I finished the pencils for my next book!! 287 pages, whew! Hard to pick a sample page that isn't spoiler-y, but here's a tiny peek:

Hey look! I have a new book! Claudia Claws is an all-new, all-ages graphic novel, and I’m so excited to share it with you. This story really surprised me, and honestly kept me grounded this past year. Coming this spring (but you can preorder now on my website!)

Broke my foot this week 😢 Have passed some of the time by drawing portraits on the Notes app using my thumb... it's very soothing!

Obvious there are so many books that inspired each of us to become authors, but a couple that jump instantly to my memory are these:

We all know publishing takes a lot of patience. One way I've maintained some sense of control is always having a side project that I get to put out on MY time. Currently that's been my comic Claudia Claws, a moody little story about a cat basketball player who was forced into retirement.

Hi! Figured I'd start my bluesky experience sharing this drawing i made with my kid when he was 4. I don't know why, I just like it! What's everybody get up to on this app?
