This post is to celebrate the amazingly gifted illustrators that often find their names missing from conversations, therefore overshadowed by authors or those who focus on the written word. Illustrators are often forgotten or left out of
articles, panels, social media alerts, book discussions, and other platforms that
promote and discuss books. This is not
to say that illustrators are not mentioned at all in these platforms, but I
often find that they are not given their proper praise. Check out some of our favorite children’s
books illustrators below. We want you to bask
in the color, style, and feeling of their work so enjoy a few samples of what these
illustrators are gifted with. Each listed
illustrator’s name is linked to their website or another where you can learn more about them,
their work, and even buy a canvas or two.
Happy Reading and Viewing!!
