Project: Louisville Counts

Louisville Counts is a children’s counting and art book written by Gill Holland and Stephanie Brothers, two Louisville do-gooders. It features 22 illustrations by 22 different artists of the numbers 0-21 and how they relate to an aspect of Louisville. In addition to hand-lettering all the text on each page and doing the cover illustration, Amanda also had her own spread. Ty pulled the whole thing together with his laptop and mouse. All the proceeds from the sale of the book benefit the Speed Museum’s Art Sparks children’s learning center.
