Bob Artley (1917-2011) was the celebrated illustrator of more than ten books. His career began more than fifty years ago as an editorial cartoonist. He spent most of his time with the Des Moines Tribune and the Worthington (Minnesota) Daily Globe. In retirement, he devoted most of his time to children’s books. He wrote and illustrated Once Upon a Farm, Memories of a Farm Kitchen, Christmas on the Farm, Living With Pigs, and Step Up!, also published by Pelican.
Here, this well-established illustrator takes an affectionate look at farm life throughout the seasons. All the activities of the year are described and illustrated in fascinating detail.
Bob Artley grew up on his family farm in Hampton, Iowa. At the University of Iowa, Artley's work first began to include scenes of farm life, and, when an editorial cartoonist for the Worthington Daily Globe, his watercolors and essays of life on the farm evolved into a weekly feature.
