Volcano Book Art

Here are some of the illustrations for the book, Mi Casa en el Volcán, (I Built my House on a Volcano), written by Joe Cole, & published in 2014, on Vulcanalia, the feast of the god of fire & volcanoes! The book is billed as "a picture book for all ages", as it delves into ideas about decision-making & following one's passions... things we deal with all our lives.

What I loved most about illustrating this book, is immersing myself into a fascinating culture, and its history. The textures, colors, stories, landscapes, the incredible plant & animal life - it was all so rich! 

Here's a review:
"Joe’s words convey a graceful story and Stacye’s illustrations are marvelous. It stays in the mind and activates the heart. Love of place and simple faith carry more water than all the false fears of the world. Besides, we all live on the volcano."

— Gary Phillips, writer, naturalist, entrepreneur
