CLOSE-UP DETAILS FROM PRINT:
This image is from Angela Johnson's I Dream Of Trains picture book. Her text reads...
Short days, cold days, turn back into long, warm planting days, and we are where we were and who we are.
I still stare at the tracks and wait for Casey and his engine to come flying past the fields and dream me away.
I love how Angela's text goes in and out of reality in the mind of this little boy. This was the first thumbnail sketch I did when creating the art for I Dream Of Trains.
I ended up blowing up the tiny thumbnail drawing on my copier over and over and just painting it as it was. I loved that we ultimately used it as a cover for the book.
