In this gallery you will find the illustrations for the story Black Mane. The Turkish title of the book
is Kara Yele..This children's story is written by Fedai Çakır and is a lovely variation on the classic
theme of a boy who makes friends with a wild horse. The Istanbullian publisher, Kavis Kitap, will
be bringing the book out this year. Update: the book is now published and looks magnificent!
Congratulations to Kavis Kitap for the excellent quality of this richly coloured children's book.

This book was very enjoyable to illustrate! I found much inspiration for the horse
and foal from the days when I owned a horse of my own. And, the landscapes
are definitely inspired by rambling in the hills on the outskirts of Ankara.

These next images show details of each illustration.
