Watercolor paintings for a children's book that I never managed to publish
The book is about a little boy Tobi and his friend Sofi who live on an Island and spend a day biking around. A few things happen to them that lead them through the whole Island and back home again. It is a quiet story for small children, about 5 to 7 years old, with a funny ending. I have not finished the last paintings.
All of the paintings are constructed, except for the Banque Oceanique, which I painted from a photo. It is an old brick building in my neighborhood in Portsmouth, NH.
