 Meet "The Littlest Unicorn" |
John has described his own talents as "fractured", but "diverse" would be more accurate. During the early months of 2009 John applied his talents to the writing and illustrating of a children's book titled "The Littlest Unicorn". The idea for the basic storyline had been rolling around in his head for quite a long time, but the project really took off when he began the watercolor paintings for the illustrations. This charming story was first published in September, 2009. The 9 X 7 book has 20 pages and includes 6 of John's watercolor illustrations. Children and adults of all ages will enjoy the tale, although it is aimed at those ages 8-9. "The Littlest Unicorn" is available from the artist for $14.50 plus tax and shipping. Please contact John for orders or more details.
