Train


Last weekend I read, The Sisters Brothers, by Patrick DeWitt, heard Mac Barnett read aloud, The Three Robbers, by Tomi Ungerer, and drew shadows in a class taught by Sophie Blackall.  So the answer to this week's challenge in Illustration Friday for Train is a combination of those influences, and a bit of True Grit too (shadow is of Rooster).
Graphite, ink, and newspaper transfer.
