Book Illustration - The Climber

9"x9" acrylic

What I especially like about this one (besides the fact that I painted my beautiful granddaughter) is the composition.  I love all the crossing and angled lines.  I thought a long time about what colors to use and I think it worked out well.  This little one is really a climber and an explorer.  Nothing is safe from her probing fingers and she hasn't yet grasped the concept of "fragile."  It is so fascinating how kids from the same parents can be so different.
