"Nurk!" by Ursula Vernon
SF&F Picture 42 out of 78 by Ursula Vernon
  | Meet Nurkus Aurelious Alonzo Electron Maximilian Shrew...but you can call him Nurk. He's the hero of the project I've been sort of kicking around--the story of a small insectivore, armed only with native shrewy wit, a cheese sandwich, and an extra pair of socks, who travels in his amazing Snailship (really more of a snailboat) through strange lands in search of Adventure. This particular view is a chunk of a larger piece in progress, as Nurk will be looking at the strange denizens of the Land Where Fish Grow On Trees, but I wanted to actually paint him before I got too elaborate. Now, to answer the question that some of you who trust me to be dark and depraved may be asking--why all this cute stuff recently? Well, it's simple. I recently acquired a brother. Named Max. There's 22 years between us, and my parents were VERY surprised. (It's great for me. I'm now out of the reproductive loop--potential kidney donor, will visit me in nursing home, and I never touch a diaper. Plus I get to buy him neat stuff. Sort of like instant grandkid!) Anyway I've been thinking about trying to do a children book, now that I actually have an audience...of course, by the time it saw print, he'll be shaving, but still. |
