One of our illustrators, Steve Jameson (aka "Wodin") was recently featured in his hometown newspaper. The article delves into Jameson's inspiration and vision for illustrating Just Imagine:
Jameson was going through a "rough spell" in his life when three unrelated people from different areas in the country shared the same dream. They all had a dream of a spirit that told them to contact Jameson and tell him he was in God's hands.Jameson thought back to when he used to play on a sand pile with his cars and trucks on the farmland near his home. He realized while he played that his mom was at home caring for his six siblings and his father was at work downtown at a finance office, and no one really knew where he was.
"I was having so much fun with my cars and trucks that it just occurred to me when I saw that vision that if there was a God and he was looking down at little Stevie playing there then maybe that's how God gets pleasure out of this creation, by watching all the children in the world play," Jameson said. "How much fun that must be to vicariously enjoy that experience through children."
