Jaco, yr aderyn traed mawr
16 llun du&gwyn i gyd-fynd a phedair stori annwyl a doniol gan Sioned Wyn Huws.
Mae Jaco yn anhapus iawn gyda maint ei draed ond mae'n raddol ddod i'w derbyn a gwerthfawrogi manteision cael traed mawr.
Dyma oedd fy ymdrech gyntaf yn darlunio adar "anthropomorffaidd". Er mwyn cracio gwneud adar treuliais ddiwrnod cyfan yn copio lluniau pob llyfr llun&strori adran blant Llyfrgell Caernarfon oedd ag adar ynddynt! Dwi'n dal i fwynhau dwdlo adar (gwbl feiolegol anghywir) pan rwy'n lladd amser ar dren / mewn cyfarfod diflas / yn y cae swings ayb.
Jaco, the small bird with the big feet
16 black&white illustrations to accompany 4 charming and funny stories by Sioned Wyn Huws.
Jaco is distraught by his big feet and the stories depict his right of passage from his initial despair to his eventual acceptance, and even realising the advantages his big feet give him.
This was my first ever attempt at anthropomorphic birds. Eek! I spent a day in the children's section of Caernarfon Library copying illustrations from every picture book on the shelves that included birds! I still enjoy doodling birds when killing time, although they are probably not ones that the RSPB could use in their publicity materials!
