Variety is the spice of life
This year I will introduce my first picture book, “Snow Day”, published by Nimbus Publishing in Halifax, NS. Working on an illustration project felt like I was getting in touch with my childhood where I would create books about my weekends and stories from my imagination. It was a delightful switch from painting my cityscape pieces and I hope there are more illustration projects in my future.
“Snow Day”
Atmospheric, nostalgic, and full of winter fun,
the debut picture book by mixed-Cree journalist, book reviewer, and podcast host
Lindsay Gloade-Raining Bird is a celebration
of Indigenous joy and childhood wonder.
Features warm, colourful artwork rendered in traditional gouache and coloured pencil from
debut illustrator Ashley Thimot.
