Biographical Information
The little girl dreaming in the center of this print is my daughter, Juliette, and circling about her is an illustrated alphabet-hence the title, "Dreaming - Alligator to Zephyr." This print combines my interest in dreams and imagery from natural history, art history and the world at large to create an inspiring place for the mind to day dream. (Funkhouser, 1987)
