My brother is almost done inking all of the pages - this is HUGE! He actually sent me a video (that I couldn't get uploaded here) that showed me how he's doing it... Think olden days... Quill and ink. That's pretty much what he does. Dips the pen in the ink, gets off any excess, draws, and cleans with water. And repeat. And repeat. And repeat. You get the point.
I was already a fan of his work before and now that I see exactly how much time and effort this is taking, I'm an even bigger one! Incredible. Here's just a little peek into what he's been up to. Click the image for a clearer look...
Cover.
A huge pile of candy... after all, you can eat as much as you want in heaven and NEVER have to worry about cavities!
Did you know that you can go to the zoo and actually RIDE the giraffes?!
And... just imagine the amusement parks!
Did y'all notice the little balloons hidden in each page? This is our way of sprinkling our Baby Nash throughout the entire book - I love the idea so much... The next step will be for Trent's wife, Kara, to water color over all of these. I'm so stinkin' pumped about how close we're getting. I PROMISE to keep everyone in the loop about how it's going and where we are in the process. After all, I wouldn't be at this point if it weren't for you!
So much love to y'all,
Tracy
