Illustration Friday: Talisman


I honestly thought I wouldn't have anything for this one but then I remembered drawing this back in 1994 for my children's book class at Hussian. Each semester we were given the option of re visioning a classic so I choose The Rainbabies by Laura Krauss Melmed and Jim Lamarche, a very strange book.

The one below was the cover.

Perfect illustration for this theme. I like the "looking over someone's shoulder" perspective and the lighting.

I'll have to check that story out. Don't think I've every heard it. Wonderful illustration.

I love both of these illustrations--the worried look on the two old people's faces.
