Molly Bang's "Picture This, How Pictures Work"
Monday September 20, 2004
Molly Bang's "Picture This, How Pictures Work" (see my review) is a fascinating book. "Picture This" grew out of the artist's desire to understand one question: "How does the structure of a picture affect our emotional response?" The book for 9-12 year olds and up reads like a detective story as Bang investigates this question through the process of developing cut paper abstract illustrations for "Little Red Riding Hood."
