A miniature pig splashing in a bowl of soup; a duck leading a wheelbarrow down a country lane; a woman stroking her daughter's face with a rabbit: take a trip into Michael Sowa's brilliant and darkly comic imagination, where a menagerie of creatures adopt strange personae and pop up in the most unexpected places. In the same realm as Chris Van Allsburg abd Maurice Sendak, Sowa's paintings take on the other-worldly look of a whacked-out fairy tale. 50+ color illustrations.
