The Cleaning Station children’s book – on sale soon…
Hopefully my children’s picture book; The Cleaning Station will be on sale soon.
Here’s a preview of the front cover…
…and back cover.
Pages 6 and 7 from The Cleaning Station picture book
I’m working my way through the twenty odd illustrations from my picture book; The Cleaning Station. The illustration below is from pages 6 and 7.
The tiny fish on the left is called a “Bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse“. The larger, uglier fish on the right is called a “Potato Grouper“, or “Potato Cod” because of it’s resemblance to a large potato. It can grow to 2.5m in length. So that would be a rather large potato.
A close up of the two fish having a conversation. Fish can be quite erudite sometimes.

Not sure what type of shark. Looks slightly angry anyway.

A bit of prep. work for my picture book; The Cleaning Station.

I think he needs a thorough clean…

Watercolour sketches of fish for a picture book project…
Two watercolour character sketches for a picture book project I’m working on called ‘The Cleaning Station‘.
First a tiny character called a Bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse fish (bit of a mouthful, maybe literally?). Living somewhere nice and warm, maybe a coral reef in the Pacific. Rather than a goldfish bowl…Drawn in pencil, painted in watercolour, with added coloured pencil for detail. Just a sketchbook sketch.
Second a very large fish called a Potato Cod, or Grouper. These can grow rather large. I think it’s called a Potato Cod because it possibly resembles a potato, rather than being a potato eater. As we’ll see it rather likes the taste of other fish.
Here he is. A rather ugly sort. Again drawn in pencil, painted in watercolour with added colour pencil for detail.
I think I still need to work on the colours and design. Will post more sketches of these two soon…
