The stories in Aesop’s Fables are full of poetic moments, vivid
dramas, and tragic endings. Some touch on darker human
tendencies we see in others, some that we recognize in ourselves,
but all point to great truths that remain relevant today, taught
through the humblest of incidents. It has been an absolute
pleasure to bring these ancient tales to life with minute details,
carefully rendered textures, and rich color. Artists have been
interpreting Aesop’s Fables for centuries, and it is a privilege to
add my own pictures to that collection.
