the very beginning of a new title...
[children's books]

 

children's book

 

 

a bit of colour, sketching, digital fragments..

but acrylic on paper for the artworks

a new title in progress

 

it's about...

 

working on a new children's book, it's about frog spawn, also...

and tiny water insects, newts, snails, little animals and birds,

and plants too of course. And about water, not the BIG one,

but the smaller intimate one, of tiny delicate environments...

just a fragment

still working for the new book... not for a long time yet!

my little (paper) forest...

just in front of me :))

- sketching for a children's book -

The Elderbush

...a fairy tale of Hans Christian Andersen

and a project for a book.

The work is finished!

"I ought now to tell you a story; but I don't know any more."

"You can make one in a moment," said the little boy. 

"My mother says that all you look at can be turned into 

a fairy tale: and that you can find a story in everything."

"Yes, but such tales and stories are good for nothing. 

The right sort come of themselves; they tap at my forehead 

and say, 'Here we are.'"

"Won't there be a tap soon?" asked the little boy. 

And his mother laughed, put some Elder-flowers

in the tea-pot, and poured boiling water upon them.

"Do tell me something! Pray do!"

"Yes, if a fairy tale would come of its own accord; 

but they are proud and haughty, and come only

when they choose. Stop!" said he, all on a sudden. 

"I have it! Pay attention! There is one in the tea-pot!
