There is endless creative possibility in the world of children"s book illustration. Through the use of rhythm, color, texture, and emotion, professional illustrators bring simple stories to life with visuals so that children can comprehend and feel into the story.

Creating a book for children requires a lot of empathy. Children comprehend on a more emotive level, so it"s important that the artist can channel this through their illustrations.

You"ll notice that characters in picture books are alive with definitive expressions, and illustrators spend a lot of time perfecting these emotions in their character development.
