I’ve set a goal
for myself to do more drawing and also to
become more familiar with my
watercolor pencils,
since they are very portable and useful in sketching
situations.
I’ve done some pencil and pen sketches.
Making the familiar strange invites
the viewer to see things in a new way.
Since I'm more of an illustrator than and artist;
I’ve put together a series to dramatize a
song written in 1970
by a father for his young son.
I’ve put my own twist on it, but then,
that’s
what imagination is all about.
led some to
believe that the song was about drugs.”
The article continues--the author “has stated in interviews
that the song
was actually written for his then three-year old son, Josh.”

I don't know the song but I do love your illustrations of it! That tambourine playing elephant is great!

ReplyDeleteI think TexWisGirl is right. That song is so infectious.
What gorgeous illustrations, Leenie. You're so talented.
So much fun to see you do something like these! I love them. I am a little puzzled as to why I was too dumb to name the tune, however...Keep up the great work! I will have to take a look at that book.
ReplyDeleteWow It's so fantastic♪
ReplyDeletevery d(*⌒▽⌒*)b good
Please keep going!!
I am so jealous! ;) Man (woah-man), you're good. I forgot all about watercolour pencils... I bow down.
ReplyDeleteWonderful illustrations! I had to look up the song, as I was seldom able to understand CCR's lyrics. :) In fact, all I could ever sing when that song was playing was the "do, do, do, lookin' out my back door".
ReplyDeleteWay cool:) No I could not quess the song either:)
