Dreaming of Colorado: A Children's Bedtime Story
Stephanie Lowman has lived in Colorado for the past 25 years. She has spent much time exploring the Rocky Mountains and has gained a great appreciation for the wildlife that inhabits the state. To produce her illustrations, Stephanie paints with Gouache watercolor and then renders detail and shadows with a black pen. She has been sketching and painting for over twenty years, and this is her first book. Grant Collier is a lifelong resident of Colorado and has been working as a photographer and writer since 1996. Each year, he spends countless hours traveling across Colorado and the West taking photographs of the natural landscape. In producing this book, Grant used artistic filters in Photoshop to seamlessly combine his photographs with the illustrations of animals drawn by Stephanie. This is Grant s ninth book, and it is his first children s book.
