26. Rain in the sod house

A scene from a Ladybug Magazine piece: Flowers on the Roof, about a family living in a sod house on the prairie. What to do when it rains inside over the stove!

27. Umbrella

Double page spread from a picture book I illustrated titled Sort It Out! Published by Sylvan Dell Publishing. It has sold more copies than any other book I have illustrated and has won awards.  When I first read the manuscript I felt like it was the book I had always wanted to illustrate.

36. The Umbrella Boat

Well, I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. We spent a few days with Chris' family in Arizona which was relaxing, but seemed like an unusually short vacation... I guess vacations always seem too short once they're over. We spent an afternoon in Sedona and the night in Jerome at the reputedly "haunted" Connor Hotel. I'd been to Sedona when I was a teenager and remembered how beautiful it was, but even good, clear memories (or even photos for that matter) don't do the place justice. These were taken from the vantage point of The Chapel of the Holy Cross:












Here's a drawing done while awaiting sketch approvals for my current project:
I haven't yet drawn in the rocky wall in the background, but I thought I'd go ahead and post it anyway since it may be a while before I get back to it. This is drawn up from an eight-year-old or so thumbnail and related to this painting.

Only three more weeks until Christmas and we will be off to St. Louis to visit my family. I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season! I wish everyone a belated Happy Thanksgiving and an early Merry Christmas!

38. big enough to shade an elephant

Elephants are some of the most intelligent creatures you'll ever run across. However, due to their stubborn refusal to use sunscreen and a shortage of extra large golf umbrellas, the elephant's skin tends to be prematurely wrinkled and leathery.

39. Following Up

Frank Cordelle's Bodies and Souls, a book based on the Century Project in which he photographed nude women from age 0 to 100 was featured in Oprah's March 2007 issue. We had brought you the story of the difficulty Cordelle had in getting his book published in previous posts.

Speaking of nudity...we noticed something interesting today. We have set up a banned and challenged book display in our library as a way of getting people interested in the "Banned Book Challenge." Where's Waldo, one of the display books which was challenged because there is a topless woman on the beach. Lo and behold, in our copy, the woman has evidently put on a top. I am just curious to see if any of this blog's readers have noticed whether their sunbather is topless or not.
