Amazon Exclusive From Author David Wiesner: The Development of Art & Max
(Click on images to enlarge)
Introduction to the photos below: These images show the development of the opening spread for my latest picture book, Art & Max. Given that a picture book is so brief, the opening pages must set the scene and introduce the characters in a concise and effective way. On the half title and title pages of Art & Max, I show Max racing across the landscape, from left to right. Now, on pages 4 and 5, he enters the scene as the story begins. |
This drawing is from an early dummy, before I had fully designed the characters or fully worked out the story. | Max was originally a chameleon, but I decided to make him a Collared Lizard instead. | I have reversed the position of Arthur and Max to continue the left to right movement from the title page. | I am exploring body stances to find an expressive interaction between the two characters. This isn’t it. |
Arthur is beginning to look better. Their physical relationship still doesn't feel right. | Here the characters are looking good, but I think Max still needs to burst onto the scene somehow. | Now Max is off his feet, literally flying into the picture, and the landscape has also come together. | The scene, painted, as it appears in the book. The story of Art & Max has begun. |
