My Artwork: Illustrations |
Treasure Island
|
I was still in high-school when I received an offer to illustrate R.-L. Stevenson's famous novel.
The publisher, Ma'ariv Book Guild, insisted on a highly detailed, conservative style,
to give the illustrations a "classic" look, but allowed me complete freedom to choose which 10 scenes
to illustrate.
Working on the drawings, I felt like
"I was going to sea myself; to sea in a schooner, with a piping boatswain,
and pig-tailed singing seamen; to sea, bound for an unknown island, and to seek for buried treasures!"
The book appeared in print in 1994. Shown here is some of my artwork from that edition. |
