Helen Sewell



Check out these fun illustrations by Helen Sewell from my recent $.25 children's book purchase, "In the Beginning" by Alf Evers. The book is full of folk art like aqua, black, and brown line drawings as well as blocky shapes.

    What a great find! I love the penguin and tiger illustrations and how they are done so effectively using just two colors. Thanks for sharing this!
