The building of picture books...

My good friend Jennifer Black Reinhardt writes for a blog that celebrates picture books. She included a nice interview about "My Wilderness". I am grateful so many enjoyed learning about scratchboard and the research behind this latest project. Here's the link to the story, and to a very inspirational blog!

Happy Birthday, My Wilderness!

Today is the official Release Day of My Wilderness. Last year at this time, I was eye-deep in the final art. I'm relieved to know it is at it's final destination (well, penultimate destination, as I hope copies disperse to libraries far and wide, personal and pubic alike).

Recently, I had a thought about art and writing. It's not really the act of sharing an image or a story that is the most important thing. It is that perhaps it will inspire other people to share their own works in a never ending cycle of creativity. I like I'm part of it!
