Hi #KidLitArtPostcard day, here's my spooky (but also cozy?) art for October's postcard day. I'm repped by @vickyweberbooks.bsky.social and am especially looking for Middle Grade cover work. See more work at mdashow-kidlitart.carrd.co #kidLitArt #spooky #goblins #girl #spookyMG #kidLit #MG

A girl is in an old fashioned dining room surrounded by three huge, smiling-but-untrustworthy-looking green-skinned goblin grannies, who are offering her all sorts of treats. The table is covered by other delicious-looking desserts. The girl, in a turquoise hoodie and long brown hair, is holding a glass of milk and smiling nervously.
The text on the illo reads "Michael Dashow, mdashow-kidlitart.carrd.co, rep'd by vicky Weber at TBA."

Three kids stand in a dirt clearing with pine trees behind them. A black girl and blond haired boy look comedically scared as they stare at the hispanic girl standing in the middle. She is standing on top of a box that says #1 and is pointing at herself proudly. Behind her, a magic portal shows a dodo bird flying through and a dinosaur snarling and looking at the dodo.
