Just found this cool blog My Vintage Avenue. I was lucky enough to stick my face into twitter for a second and grab this little gem that illustrator Ward Jenkins tweeted. Sweet Tweet!
Hi! I am Lisa Cinar, a writer, illustrator and overall Fan of Picture Books! This here blog serves as a way for me to catalog, and share my fascination with the art of picture book illustration.
I am now also teaching a class on Illustration for the Continuing Education Department at Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver. This blog also serves as a supplement for this class and to post Homework assignments. Here's to hoping you will get as much out of it as I will. Enjoy.
I teach at Emily Carr University of Art & Design Continuing Studies Department
Recommended Books on Illustration and Visual Storytelling
These are Books I recommend as supplementary books for my Children's Picture Book Illustration Class I teach in the Continuing Studies Department at Emily Carr University of Art & Design.
Should you wish to buy these books, I strongly encourage you to purchase them at your local independent book store instead of from Amazon. Our local bookstores are going out of business and need your support!
