The Mole and the Violin
I am currently completing illustrations for
George Brummell's children's chapter book.
Each chapter will feature a full page charcoal
drawing. George contacted me to do the
illustrations and since that time he has become
a dear friend. We have spent a lot of time
discussing his vision for the book, talking about
our lives and our work and sharing humor and
stories. I have yet to meet him in person,
but plan to this summer. I live in NY and he and
his wife live in Maryland.
From The Mole and the Violin Chap.5 |
I have great respect for George Brummell.
He was blinded in the Vietnam War and yet
has adapted with remarkable courage and
service to others. He chronicles his experience
in Vietnam and his growing up years in
Shades of Darkness.
Read about this inspiring memoir on his web site.
