Strange Voyage

Mid-century illustrator Peter P. Plasencia had an great eye for storytelling and perspective. His illustrations for Jules Verne: The Man Who Invented the Future (1964) by Franz Born are so engaging. I love how a perfect little stippling of gouache can render so many different shades and shadows. I love them all, but my favorite is the one with two men dashing downhill.
