Did not like this art at all, though I’m certain it took much time and effort. Eww. So lifeless and all the fat rolls on the animals necks... And it got worse when you see Adam and Eve. Eve has the fat rolls too. Confusing.

Beautiful illustrations that go along with the story of creation in the book of Genesis. I used it with my upper elementary Sunday school class and we compared the illustrations with the scripture.
