This is a piece I did this for an issue of Today's Parent a few months back but since it fits the Illustration Friday topic nicely, I thought I'd link it up. The article provides tips for talking to your kids about their report cards. I really enjoy illustrating these articles. The art director, Nicole Chung, is such a pleasure to work with, plus I always seem to learn something along the way!

Great work, love your illustrations
Love it! nice work!
That's a great texture on the not-so-hot grade.
awesome piece! love her expression!
I love how she is hiding behind it! So cute!
She will have to study more, cute character.
awwww C-
she is too adorable e to get C-!
She's so cute! I really like your style.
What a great piece for the article! Definitely captures the vulnerability a child would have when receiving a poor grade. The look on her face says it all!
That's a great illo! Just perfect for IF too! You have such a fun style... always love to come by and see your latest and greatest!
Very cute and clever!
Esta hermosa, muy tierna, buena expresión
great illustration for that subject :)
fantastic work! such great character!
The little girl is really cute and I love the texture of the letter.
Hey Michael - it's been too long..hope you're having a good summer! This is such a fantastic piece..perfect for the prompt and gorgeous textures and contrast..and your character is a delight! No worries, little girl, a C- can be worked on, right? : )
Nice illustration. In my experience (in these days of helicopter parents), an A- is a disaster. an "A" is imperfection because it should have been an "A+."
Wonderful girl, It seems you have done it by hand
This is perfection yes indeed! I love that little face. I know that look on her face. I use to come home with same look. It's super hard being dyslexic. This is wonderful work Man. YOU DID IT AGAIN! We are not worthy people. We are not worthy he he he he he! Best to you.
Your soul sister

Cute, very cute. And with your "textures" touch that I like so much.
Nice job!
great way of capturing the anxiety of not quite being "good enough" that many kids feel!
i miss you and everyone already!!!!!!
Great, great piece!
beautiful art: fun, smart, witty, playful - i love what you do and the way you do it.
reminds me of the best kids books i grew up with in the 60's and 70's.
Oh, I love this one. Her expression and the hiding behind the C. Perfect!
love the idea of composition and the colors chosen...great!
