The Wizard of Oz.


Over the years I have tackled a lot of classic texts, and there are many others that I would love to illustrate as picture books. 
Here's a  shot of a Limited Edition Print that I did some years ago on the subject of "The Wizard of Oz".
I was delighted to have the opportunity to portray Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow and the cowardly Lion, but rather like the example of my two pictures from  Gulliver's Travels, I think it's unlikely that I'll ever illustrate the full story.
This print was published by a New York based company called The Elfin Light Press.
