One thing I love about the artwork in Tree Hole Homes is Amy
Hevron’s clever idea of incorporating real pieces of wood into the
illustrations. In all my years of publishing books, I’ve never seen that before.
If you look closely at the images, you’ll see that the animals and
backgrounds are painted, but the trees are left unpainted. The grain of the
wood mimics the bark of the trees in the illustrations.
How did Amy accomplish this amazing feat? Click here and scroll down to watch a video about Amy’s process.
Amazing!
