Hi #kidlitartpostcard ! I’m working on a picture book about Medusa discovering her powers and learning to control them. This illustration probably won’t be in the book, but I still love it.

Illustration of Medusa watching in alarm as a boy kicks and stomps in a tide pool. A crab defends himself from a barnacle covered stone helmet.

In Reykjavik, across from Iceland’s parliament building: The Black Cone, Monument to Civil Disobedience. “When the government violates the people's rights, insurrection is, for the people and for each portion of the people, the most sacred of the rights and the most indispensible of duties.”

Photo of a large stone, splitting down the middle, a black cone is wedged in the crack. A plaque on the rock gives the title and inscription of the piece.
