Dear Readers,
Welcome back to my author's blog, Happy DETours!
With my children's book birthday fast approaching (Saturday 11/9), I thought it was fitting to meet the illustrator.
This is Aaron Trudell. Owner of Tempered Ink which provides art and self-publishing services. He is a very talented and gifted illustrator, book cover designer, and artist!
He works with different mediums across different genres such as realism, fantasy, anime, and dabbles in blacksmithing.
He is a dear friend and a wonderful collaborative partner with all my book projects. His ability to bring my words and book world to life, through his illustrations, is a wonder to behold. I am so grateful for his stunning art!
Besides book cover design and illustrations, he does art prints as well as commissioned works of art. To inquire about his services, availability, and/or to get a quote for your next art project, you can contact him at https://www.instagram.com/temperedink/
Aaron has signed on to complete my third children's book in The Adventures Above Series to be completed this Spring 2025 and the cover design for my YA companion novel due out in early 2025.
Thank you Aaron for all your wonderful insight, suggestions, perspective, and attention to detail. You have made this collaboration of author and illustrator an absolute dream. I have loved working with you and look forward to working on more projects together for many years to come!
Happy DETours,
Jenn
