First up is Italian illustrator Fabian Negrin.īorn in Argentina, educated in Mexico, but a citizen of Italy, Negrin’s illustrations reflect a wide range of influences. Since there are so many fabulous artists, I thought I would share images from some of my favorites.
I’ve spent far too much time sifting through the books, taking photos, and reading the biographical packets for each author/illutrator. A couple of weeks ago the library where I work got a massive shipment of probably 300 books that have been nominated for the 2014 Hans Christian Andersen Award, the most prestigious international recognition given to an author and illustrator of children’s books.
