With each project I’m involved in, I see to it that it’s undertaken efficiently — from the initial brainstorming session and first rounds of sketches all the way to the final illustration. With this piece, I knew the client I was collaborating with wanted something that would leave a lasting impression with the audience, and the end result did just that.
About the Illustrator
ElisaBeth Steines
I am a painter, illustrator, and high school art teacher residing in the picturesque Chester County, PA during the school year and the majestic Martha's Vineyard in the summers. I love animals and nature. My husband and I love hiking and studying the indigenous wildlife. We have a creative son and two dogs. I have a particular fondness for ancient Celtic culture and art. I did my thesis on the Celtic Art Revival and studied in Scotland at Edinburgh College of Art.
I was excited to work on this project with Andy and provide a much needed resource for parents, teachers, and therapists. The goal of our book is to allow children to explore their feelings about death and give a little insight, to those around them, of how our children experience the loss of a loved one. We hope it will serve as a precursor to ope dialog about a tender subject.
