James Ransome is the Exquisite Corpse Adventure Illustrator for The Exquisite Corpse Adventure Episode Two: The Lost Clue by Katherine Paterson!
"In all my work, while reading the text, I mark it for what I consider are ‘visually dramatic’ phrases that would inspire interesting images. For this image, I was inspired by the potential for dramatic lighting." James Ransome
James Ransome's mysterious and evocative illustration for Episode Two of the Exquisite Corpse Adventure is painted in luminous watercolor washes. The NCBLA and the Library of Congress are thrilled that Mr. Ransome is contributing to The Exquisite Corpse Adventure!
