“The Dream” – a book illustration from Witches and Fish by Duncan Long

I recently had a request from a friend to post one of my illustrations that I did for a children’s book Witches and Fish: A Parable of Dreams. The book was basically written for the child in me, with no real plans to ever market it in a serious way, in large part because while a child is the central character, the stories are aimed at adults rather than children.

The book illustration above is one of the early pictures in the book where the boy dreams of flying. And as the title suggests, the whole book has a more or less dream/surreal/modern-day fairy tale feel to it.

Here are three more illustrations from the book:

“The Elephant and the Crane” – a book illustration from Witches and Fish by Duncan Long

“The Fish Kite” – a book illustration from Witches and Fish

“Lost, Under the Sea” – a book illustration from Witches and Fish by Duncan Long

Print and Kindle versions of Witches and Fish: A Parable of Dreams are now available.

When not writing and illustrating children’s books no one will buy, Duncan Long loves his work as an illustrator for magazine and book covers. See more of his artwork at Duncan Long’s Art Portfolio
