It took several years to complete the story and not because it took so long to draw and write but simply that I kept finding other things to do. What began around 1990 was finally done by 1994 and except for a few photocopied versions sent to friends it's never been outside it's portfolio.
If you go next door to take a look please remember to click on the entire archive or it will stop after 6. It's an odd and very sentimental piece so if you're prepared for such a thing I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did when I decided to look at it again.
I have seen some pieces of this before, as I'm sure you sent some copies to us years ago (I'm going to look in the treasure box).
ReplyDeleteIt's completely enchanting. I love the scene of the babies driving the car.
It's something that many would enjoy. I wonder if you'd publish?
Thanks.
lovely pic & very interesting reading that piece of info.!
ReplyDeleteGreat artwork, and "sentimental" is good sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI too am working on a "sentimental" project that continues to get postponed over and over.
If I ever finish the damn thing, I'd love for you to look at my "paintings" that accompany my story.
Lovely picture
ReplyDeleteOh Susan this piece is stunning! I adore Art Nouveau! are you familiar with Alphonse Mucha? He's one of my favorite artists. Your work very much rivals his. I must thank Gary for introducing me to you and vice/versa.
ReplyDeleteKathy,
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting and for the nice comparison. I love Art Nouveau too - definitely a big influence. My own favorite is Edmund Dulac - I once went to a rare exhibit of his originals and eventually had to be dragged out.. yes, they checked my pockets and purse too.
I love the graphic.
