4. 3 for 5 art challenge

Day 1 of 3 for 5 Art Challenge - I've been tagged by Sally Vitsky in this FB Challenge to show 3 images a day for 5 days of my cut paper illos and to nominate another cut paper artist to do the same.

I nominate Judith Moffett. I don't think you are on Facebook Ms. Moffett but you could post here on the Dust blog which will then show up on FB.

I've recently started a FB page for illustration to keep it separate from my jewelry stuff. I'm showing older pieces for the challenge since I frequently show images from my current picture books.


It is  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Susan-Swan/570998812972748

11. I Don't Believe in Elves

I Don't Believe in Elves
By Jane Thayer
Pictures by Susan Swan
William Morrow & Co., 1975



I like picture books with color schemes that get changed up and vary.  It adds interest and variety to a book. That's one of the things I like about Susan Swan's illustrations in I Don't Believe in Elves. I also like her loose drawings. I Don't Believe in Elves is a Christmas story, which I didn't realize at first  :>)  so I guess this is our Christmas in July book!
