A crab looks around obviously lost. He's playing a trumpet in the ocean, alone. The text reads "Crab wasn't lost."

Hey! It's #kidlitartpostcard day. I'm an author and illustrator of picture books. I love smart, quirky stories with memorable characters and rewarding page turns. I'm rep'd by @jenrofe.bsky.social of @andreabrownlit.bsky.social.

Illustration of a child sitting, wearing a balaclava with antennae in a sandbox, smiling and shedding a single tear, holding a waving ant. There is a row of ants walking towards a sand castle and entering it. There are kids on a swing and a slide in the background.

My name is Denis and I'm an illustrator who sometimes writes. I like hearty stories and combining bold lineart with wonky shapes and subtle painterly textures.

Oil pastel painting featuring a sunlit road with two shadowed tracks leading up. To the left there are houses in shadow and to the right there is a sunlit house, in front of a brown hill. The sunlit house has a patch of grass in front of it.

Between my precious Diana Mini camera breaking and then my laptop breaking, leaving me with no way to scan my film, I haven't been shooting a lot of film lately. The good news is that I got a new laptop, so tomorrow I'll be scanning the last roll I shot in the Diana Mini (and probably tearing up). πŸ₯Ί
