Jim Flora's The Day The Cow Sneezed

I'm a happy camper today. That's because animation director Ward Jenkins just posted an amazing piece on his blog about Jim Flora's 1957 children's book THE DAY THE COW SNEEZED. Not only does the post include lots of images from the book and Ward's thoughtful writing about the artwork, but it also has Flora's mock-ups for the book, which have never before been published. For more about Flora's art and life, look no further than Irwin Chusid's excellent biography THE MISCHIEVOUS ART OF JIM FLORA.
