26. Let's talk art! Do you draw your characters? Do others draw them? Pick one of your OCs and post your favorite picture of him!
I have tried to draw my characters. Results-- sooooo not pretty. So now I pay other actually talented people to draw them!
Since I refuse to pick just one character portrait, these go below the cut:

Amelia and Evan, from In the Darkness Find Me.
Illustration by Mandy Roberts.
I love this picture because she captured the tone of the scene so well. Once I get my office done, my copy of this one is going front and center on my desk.

Reeza, from Karavan.
Drawn by Warsheep Productions.
The pose and the look on her face are fantastic; when I think of Reeza, this is the image that comes to mind.

Stace, from We Were Strangers.
Drawn by Sheena Kristen Sy.
I adore Sheena's style, very simple and cute and I think it worked really well for this character.

The women of the Karavan series: Thiare (near the top, violet skin and blue hair); Reeza (very top, blond); Serra (opposite from Thiare, holding the knife); Ki'Rana (braided hair, Reeza's hand on her shoulder); Anabel (dark hair, blue uniform); Maiza (shades of blue); Jaetina (red tunic).
Drawn by Mandy Roberts, and then my cowriter Kath tried her hand at coloring it.
This is one of my favorites because it has half the cast in it; it's impossible for me to look at it and not feel some inspiration to work on the books.
