A modern take on the classic fairy tale stories of Beauty and the Beast, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty. A world filled with different kingdoms all united by the same fear. The Sister Fairies that travel from land to land cursing those who cross them. The only one who may can save them is, The Great Fairy. But, no one has seen her in years.

“ I’ll be writing the story myself, which is new territory for me. I did edit and add passages here and there for my The Little Mermaid book. The Book of Fairy Tales will be a project created from scratch. I’m taken the bare bones of the classic Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White, and placing them all within the same world. Their curses and hardships are all connected by the same two villainesses, The Sister Fairies.
The book will be broken down into 3 stories. A prince that is turned into a beast after he unintentionally insulted the Sister Fairies. A king who is corrupted by an ancient obsidian mirror. A young prince and his kingdom put to sleep and then entrapped by a vicious enchanted forest. Snow White may be the only one who can find The Great Fairy, the elusive and most powerful being in the land. However, no one has seen her in years.”
The Book of Fairy Tales is scheduled to launch on Kickstarter Fall of 2024. Be the first notified of the Kickstarter launch and keep up with the project with a quarterly newsletter.

“She felt a great deal of compassion for poor Beast. 'Alas,' said she, 'tis a thousand pities any thing so good-natured should be so afflicted.'”
Although powerful and fearsome with barbed vines enveloping him, his hand delicately wraped around Beauty and she grasped him protectively in kind. A selfless woman who pays for her father’s mistake. A tormented man cursed and living in exile. A relationship that blossoms from understanding, trust, and precious love.
I’m thrilled to bring you the first enchanting illustration from my latest book. “Beauty and Beast” is one of several fairy tale stories I intend to illustrate over the next year. Following the success of my previous Kickstarter book “The Little Mermaid,” I’ve begun the “The Book of Fairy Tales.” It's another personal project set to challenge me as an artist.
