It takes a lot of courage to make room for this messing, and I can easily become discouraged and want to give up. This usually means sitting down with all my art supplies around, and for lack of a better term, messing around. When I have a book I’m going to the final art on, I am looking for the best way to tell the new story with pictures. Maybe I’m excited about putting two colors next to each other, or about a certain order of layering crayon with pencil or paint. Thanks, Elizabeth! The art for a book stems from my explorations as an artist in my daily life, as well as what I’ve been doing in previous books. How did you come up with this lovely style of thick and thin lines and vibrant color washes?Ī. David - Congratulations on I’M MY OWN DOG! You seem to be constantly playing with your illustration methods. I’m thrilled to have David back to talk about his latest creation! Well, David has a new one out which every dog owner can relate to. You know I’m a fan of David Ezra Stein (Caldecott Honor winner for INTERRUPTING CHICKEN), who I interviewed a while back for BECAUSE AMELIA SMILED.
