Exhibition: Children’s book illustration

February 7, 2013 by Gretta Schifano 2 Comments

I went to a lovely exhibition today at Foyles Gallery in London. It’s the graduation show for the MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. I went because my friend Suz was on the course and I wanted to support her, but I loved looking at the beautiful illustrations and books on show. Some of the students, including my friend, already have publishing deals.

The family travel lowdown: The show finishes on Saturday – if you pop along, you may see the work of the next Quentin Blake or Lauren Child.

Gretta, you always post great photographs. Do you take most of them yourself? If so, Anne D has some competition!
