The six images that follow were done for my Illustrated Book class.  The pop-ups were engineered and illustrated by myself and accompany Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky poem.  I started with sketches and then made a dummy book with mock-up pop-ups to size.  I then disassembled the pop-ups and traced their components, which I painted in gouache.  The paintings were scanned and printed out (double-sided prints), cut out, and reassembled .  The product is what you see below.

Baba Yaga Illustration

Text on image: As Masha stepped up to the door, who should open it but the witch, Baba Yaga. “Hello little girl, did you get lost in the woods?  Come in, let Grandmother take care of you.”  Before Masha could run away Baba Yaga had grabbed her arm in a claw-like grip and pulled her inside.  Baba Yaga locked her in a small room, cackling through the keyhole, “You stay there, my duck, while I go and ready the oven.” 

Baga Yaga Illustration

The character is made from wire, painted sculpy, fabric, and ribbon.  The hands and head can be removed from the wire armature and replaced with different ones so that the emotions can be changed.  The background is velvet, fabric, canvas, paper, and cardboard.  The rocks are felt and polyfil.  

Text on image: "But one summer day a teasing breeze snatched Masha's hair ribbon and bore it into the woods.  Masha ran after it and the breeze drew her further and further into the forest until she was lost."
