Van Dog rides to the countryside to paint a landscape one day. As he mounts his easel, mixes his paints, and contemplates the scenery, the landscape slowly unfolds in weird and wonderful ways: a snail nibbles on a mushroom, ants gather to work, and a giant lizard monster sets off on a journey to Tokyo. As the landscape becomes busier and busier, Van Dog struggles to finish his painting-but is he overwhelmed by his subject, or is the richness of the countryside precisely what inspires him?
"A wacky, immersive picture book about artistic inspiration. . . A busy book with a heart for art. " -- "Kirkus" (8/31/2022 12:00:00 AM)
