About the Artist:
Candice Bourne
I was also inspired by my son, Xavier, who I used as a model for many of the drawings. Watching my son as he goes though his early childhood reminds me of my daily discoveries as a young child and the world my imagination opened up to me. All the illustrations were drawn using colored pencils. This brings a brilliance and innocence to the drawings that are fitting for a children’s book. They capture the essence of my early childhood.ver menos
