This was the very first illustration I did for ‘East o’ the Sun and West o’ the Moon’.
The scene where the lassie is abandoned in the wood. This one set the mood for the rest of the book.

This was the first illustration I did for ‘East o’ the Sun and West o’ the Moon’.
I remember being struck by the lassie’s predicament, abandoned in the gloomy wood, and this pic set the mood and for the rest of the illustrations in the book.
