This project started off as a live third year illustration university brief. The author of this early childhood reading book, Kathleen Ferrier, chose my work to be published. You can find all of her books, including Hedgehogs Hide, at http://cargocollective.com/lankyhippocom/B-O-O-K-S. I created these illustrations using drypoint printmaking in blue ink, and hand coloured some elements using watercolour. Text has since been added by Kathy's graphic designer, but can be found in my image captions. This project was created 2011.
