Now enjoy some Katie Watson fan art!
This is such a brilliant representation of KATIE WATSON AND THE PAINTER’S PLOT, isn’t it? Amity Burock really captures the characters and the setting with all her attention to tiny details. I love that you can actually read the ingredients of the Inheritance Powder potion!
As impressive as Amity’s art skills are, I was even more impressed when I found out this picture is actually poster sized! Amity created it for her class mystery novel project. I bet she Aced it!
Wow, Izzy really captures the drama of this scene from KATIE WATSON AND THE SERPENT STONE. I love the swirl of colours and the stunned girls’ faces as they twirl into the past! It’s a very convincing cave painting and waterfall too. I think Izzy may have a future in illustration…
Vagabond is one of my favourite characters in KATIE WATSON AND THE PAINTER’S PLOT, so you can imagine how pleased I was to receive Bea’s very GOOD drawing of him. I especially like the happy expression on his face – I’m guessing this is Vagabond after he’s been rescued by Jack & Tom with Katie’s help. And I sure am glad Bea decided not to depict any pigeon stomping!
