WORLD TALES - MAIDEN WISER than the TSAR

The Maiden Wiser Than The Tsar

A couple of weeks ago John J. Bell of the Al-Bab Blog suggested we make a short and simple video of one of the tales in the book World Tales.  The tale on which the video short is based is "The Maiden Wiser Than The Tsar".  We put together the short video in less than 10 days.  I will blog at another time about the different stages of development from agreeing characters to final editing. This video will be entered into a competition for illustrating tales from the book.

A few of the initial and final sketches are shown below:

Some of the sketches are featured on my website where prints can be purchased ( inARTelFEN )

  1. We just finished watching with our kids... We loved the story and the art was beautiful! So engaging - felt like we visited a faraway world! We'd love to see more!
