a little, aloud

Some recent drawings... I have been asked to illustrate a small book of poems and excerpts from novels. The purpose of the book is to encourage adults who don't usually read at all to read out loud. I'm really glad to be a part of this project and will post more illustrations later. There are more and a stories behind them all!
