Children's Illustration with Lisa Brown

I love looking for interesting videos on YouTube. Today I found this great one that I wanted to share with you.

We can see the talented Lisa Brown talking about all the books she has written and illustrated and I believe this is a class at The Academy Of Art University. She also shares her studio, her likes and dislikes in kids' books and explains how she works from thumbnails to finish art.

It's very interesting to see what she liked as a child and the books she creates now. What truly fascinates me is the fact that she really has a long line of varied work. Amazing, I love that. That's a talent not every artist has.

Oh and by the way, she is so right about the coffee mug and watercolor water. Has happened to me, for real! Hehe.. You'll know what I mean when you watch the video.

Enjoy! :o)

Academy of Art University- School of Illustration

I'm busy working on my studio right now and just realized it was my day to post. Honestly, I really didn't have anything prepared, hee.. so I decided I would share what I was doing at the moment.

I like to find something to listen to when I work. Usually is music but other times I find podcats, interviews or interesting videos related to children's publishing, illustration, etc..

Today I found this wonderful one on YouTube from the Academy of Art Univerity in San Francisco. The panel is formed by Matt Faulkner, Julie Downing and Andrea Brown. The video lasts more than an hour so you really need to find the time to sit down and watch or do like me and listen to it while you work.

Enjoy. :o)
