Summary: A Glimpse of Shepard's Genius
Comment: The Pooh Sketch Book is a wonderful look at the creative genius of Ernest H. Shepard. This collection of preliminary sketches for the classic Pooh illustrations is a must for any serious patron of illustration. Shepard's economy of line and his mastery of gesture and movement are even more evident in pencil form. The softness of the medium coupled with the charm of the subject is a perfect combination. Even though Shepard is a well known and well loved illustrator, this book gives you a new appreciation for the artist. The book is well produced and the illustrations are handled well. One does not often find a collection of studies for finished illustrations, and when one becomes available it offers the reader a rare chance to see the masters mind at work. I simply can not say enough about Ernest H. Shepard, and this amazing collection of drawings.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Just as beloved and cherished as A. A. Milne's stories and poems are Ernest H. Shepard's unforgettable line drawings of Pooh, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Eeyore, and all their friends. The childlike wonder of the Pooh stories is perfectly captured in Shepard's charming illustrations. Collected here are pencil sketches and rare drawings donated by the artist in 1969 to the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. Some offer readers a fascinating look at the creative process, as Milne's characters take shape under Shepard's care. Those who admire Winnie-the-Pooh will find much to discover in this very special book, a fitting tribute to the man who gave form, shape--and personality--to the most famous bear in the world.
