CREATE A PICTURE BOOK
Ten Sunday classes designed for illustrators
who want to learn how to express their personal picture book vision and
appeal to their audience—
children and publishing decision-makers.
Our Interactive on-line sessions generally begin with illustrated lecture-discussions. These explore aspects of classic and currently successful picture books with attention to the rhythm expressed in language, plotting, and layout. Occasional writing exercises hone your skills.
The second half of the class is a review of work you've done over the past week. Students and the instructors respond with questions and suggestions and comments that will help you find your way. Questions that come up during the week are answered via e-mail.
Our goal is to see you develop a dummy, color samples, and an understanding of what's needed before presenting your work for publication.
