6x6 Coming & Going is based on Charley Harper's larger illustration, 'Once There Was a Field,' created in 1974 to accompany an article of the same name published in Ranger Rick. We love the artist's description of a busy, blooming field teeming with life:

'It was a wondrous world. Birds. Blooms. Bugs. Butterflies. A breeze. Bees buzzing inside buttercups. A bluebird, killdeer and quail chasing grasshoppers on a glorious morning among morning glories. The sounds are long past hearing. The scents are past savoring. The sights are past seeing, but live forever in a picture.'

— Charley Harper (1922–2007)
