All of these projects were for books used by children at Vacation Bible School, which is a children's program used by churches in the summertime. The books ranged in size from 4.25" x 5.5" to 8.5" x 11", and were divided by age into four groups (ages 3-5, 6-7, 8-9, and 10-12). Each year a different theme was introduced to make the course fun and exciting, especially in these student books.
Theme: Summer Camp
I used stock art and freelance spot art to create these pages.

Theme: Wild West
These 8.5” x 11” pages were designed to be removed from the books,
then folded twice to make smaller booklets. There are different covers
for every age level for all five sessions, three shown here on the right.
Art was repurposed from other assignments to create these pages.

Theme: National Park
These 8.5" x 11" pages are designed to be folded in thirds, like a brochure.
I used stock photos and illustrations to create these in Photoshop and Illustrator.
The four images on the right show just the fronts of some of the brochures.
The larger image is one page before folding.

Theme: Science Lab
These books are 8.5" x 5.5". I used stock art to create all of these images, combining art from different sources to create the illustrations.
