Duck & Goose Goose Needs a Hug Board book by Tad Hills Original English books

Gosling was in a bad mood and couldn't lift her spirits. Her good friends tried to make her happy. She played hide and seek, ghost catching, handstand and treading water. Her good friends' suggestions were very good, and they were all interesting activities. The gosling was very grateful, Sometimes it's easy to get along with each other, but it's not easy to get along with each other The author describes: Ted. Tad Hills: "I spent a lot of time in art when I imagined myself as a child, creating, composing, painting." Hyles didn't mean to be an artist, but his motivation was innocent and pure. "I loved to create," he says. Hails, a graduate of the Skidmore College Art School in New York, describes himself as a freelancer. He has worked as an actor, jewelry, false teeth for theatrical performances, interior remodeling and cover painting for adult business books 海尔斯儿童文学著作的开端恰好在妻子于(Simon and Schuster)出版社的儿童书籍部门担任艺术总监新职位之时.“莉(Lee)问我能不能为那些没有插画家的书籍做绘画”海尔斯说.当莉转行到蓝灯书屋(Random House)与她的老友兼合伙 Ann Schwartz 自行从事出版业时,在莉的鼓励下,海尔斯完成了许多绘本,他说:“一开始,我完成了四本绘本.”Duck and Goose 即为其一. Duck and Goose 的书名起初只是“小笨鹅,怪鸭和巨蛋”当海尔斯构思故事时,他意识到那颗蛋必须够大才能承受一只鸭和一只鹅,但谁能生出如此巨大的蛋呢?是怪兽?又或是鸵鸟?他在幼稚园儿子的课堂中提出此疑问,得到的却是一双双充满问号的眼睛.海尔斯于是得到了启发,把那颗巨蛋改为一颗球,且改了书名. “对我来说,写作相当困难,我可以花数小时盯着空白的一页..”他提及:“当莉回家问我今天如何时,我告诉她还行,我完成了一个句子.但如果当我真的沉浸那个情境中,我可以真实地听到他们的对话(鸭和鹅)他们在告诉我他们的心里话,这是很好的体验,此时此刻,你不是在工作,你在享受!” 海尔斯使用水性油彩打底,再用彩色铅笔完成后细节,虽然他的构图看似简单,海尔斯画了上百只鸭鹅才画出满意成品.他说:“我画的首只看起来很老,像老烟枪.”数月后, 海尔斯终于掌握出它们的精随-圆头,方脸,三角蹼,门把状的嘴,他说:“当我完成眉毛部分时,我终于可以传达小鸭的心情了.” 当海尔斯的两个孩子渐大时,他对于儿童间的互动相当着迷,他说:“当我还是孩子时,恶劣行径和不公待遇对我来说是不容许的.”在Duck and Goose中,他新创造一个小鸭叫希尔多(Thistle)以描绘出一个友谊三角关系.海尔斯藉由小鸭,小鹅还有希尔多来传达他的观察心得也提供读着们亲子间的沟通途径. 海尔斯在纽约的布鲁克林创作.有时,他会放下纸笔,试着以接纳的态度体验当下.“通常我的灵感来自于无心插柳,要达到顺手拈来的境界非易事.”他说. According to Hiles, book creation is just like artistic creation, that is, to make your work rich and live as much as possible with rich language color and personality through the selected media-drama stage, canvas or book paper.
