I love illustrating historic or nature oriented books especially. Each project brings an opportunity to research and learn. For this book I researched ancient Jerusalem via virtual tours and photos and looked at sculptural reliefs for clothing, chariots and the hanging gardens. You won't see all of my research but it's all needed to get the feeling of time, place and character.
