The illustrations for this series were created by Scott McKowen,
who, with his wife Christina Poddubiuk, operates Punch & Judy
Inc., a company specializing in design and illustration for theater
and performing arts. Their projects often involve research into the
visual aspects of historical settings and characters. Christina is
a theater set and costume designer and contributed advice on the
period clothing for the illustrations.
Scott created these drawings in scratchboard - an engraving medium
which evokes the look of popular art from the period of these
stories. Scratchboard is an illustration board with a specifically
prepared surface of hard white chalk. A thin layer of black ink is
rolled over the surface, and lines are drawn by hand with a sharp
knife by scraping through the ink layer to expose the white surface
underneath. The finished drawings are then scanned and the color is
added digitally.
The beautiful Meg, artistic tomboy Jo, doomed Beth, and selfish
Amy: since the publication of Little Women in 1869, these four
sisters have become America's most beloved literary siblings.
Louisa May Alcott's rich and realistic portrait has inspired three
movies and stirred the emotions of countless young girls. Set in
New England during the Civil War, the novel follows the adventures
of the March sisters as they struggle to pursue their dreams.
