Tom Sawyer

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (illustrated by Susan Pope)

I illustrated the graveyard scene from the Adventures of Tom Sawyer for a competition (Tomie dePaola).  I've never entered a competition before, so it was a fun exercise.  I thought I'd make them animal characters, since I'd rather draw animals than people.

Bugs!
