Customer Reviews
excellent book for all ages
I purchased this book for my 18 year old daughter, who is off to college next year to major in art. Her ambition is to be an illustrator, so I thought it would be inspirational for her. She loves that it features the illustrators of many of her favorite books from when she was small. A great book for anyone who enjoys illustration and picture books.
A must for young and old
I love this book. I had gotten it with my children in mind but being an artist myself, found great joy in reading it.
Artist to Artist: 23 Major Illustrators Talk to Children About Their Art
i thought this book was going to be good, but i didn't know it would be this good. each well-known childrens' book writer/illustrator writes about their lives, influences and inspirations.
included are ealry photos, first drawings and a full page self-portrait.
so thoughtfully put together. a beautiful book to browse through and inspire you and your children to pick up a tool and draw, paint and create.
