Last week, I chatted over at Kirkus (here) with author-illustrator Carin Berger about her new picture book, Finding Spring (Greenwillow, January 2015). Today, as always, I’m following up with some in-progress images from Carin, as well as a few spreads from the book. Those are below.
BUT she also visited 7-Imp over a year ago, while working on this book, to talk about it in detail waaaay before its publication. If you like Finding Spring and like Carin’s art and her books, I highly encourage you to check it out, if you haven’t seen it already. Lucky for us all, it is an art-filled post. It is here.
And I thank Carin for sending the additional images below. Enjoy.

So gorgeous and so much fun.
Enchanting!
OH. WOW. I’m torn. Do I want to collect boxes of stuff to make my own box of art supplies, or do I just want to take a class and learn how to do this? Or just watch Carin Berger?
I just need that page full of Spring…
SWOOON! just gorgeous
This is really a lovely post! So inspiring!
