KIDSSSTUFF

 

So my second major time consuming project this summer was volunteer work for a group called visions of science

I co-taught an art class for a few weeks and then i contributed to the annual magazine.

By contribute i mean i provided illustrations to various short stories written by young kids

i grew up on Robert Munch books, so this was a chance to see things from the other side of the creative fence.

I enjoyed it so much that i'm am now looking into publishers for my own stuff.

The first story is about mans obsession with oil and war in the future and a giant robot that saves them all

The second story is about mother nature manifesting herself in the form of a little unassuming young girl and having a conversation with a wheelchair bound boy.

Both of these stories i found very diligent and possessed a conscientious tone well beyond what i expected by working with kids

thus i had no choice by to pull out the ol pastels and thought-full compositions

unlike the piece above where man is looking up, this piece has nature and her god like presence looking down.
