Last week was senior portfolio week at MICA. By a strange stroke of luck, four of my SVA homies all ended up at MICA to participate. Though all of us didn’t get to see each other at the same time, it was great getting hugs in and catching up with everyone in small groups. Taeeun, Lauren (MICA graduate), and Nora reviewed portfolios and “The Bean” spoke to my advanced book illustration class. Here are a few pics…
We girls had a great time catching up over desert at Cafe Hon. I will spare you the sordid details of our little slumber party. When picturebook artists get together, there’s no telling what will happen! I’m still scraping paint off my ceiling
After saying farewell to Lauren I ushered Tae over to MICA for a day of portfolio reviews with our seniors. Tae is seen with Hannah Trieb here, you can see more of her work at www.cargocollective.com/htrieb. Hannah has also been my teaching assistant this semester for advanced book illustration. Here is one of her thesis pieces:
After a day of portfolio reviews, we picked up Jonathan Bean. On Thursday, Jonathan spoke with my advanced book illustration class about his work as a college student, why he chose graduate school, his style evolution, and how he got published. It was so great to re-live those days at SVA and to see years of hard work pay off so greatly.

New York Public Library’s Children’s Center at 42nd Street is pleased to announce our upcoming program on Saturday, October 1st at 2:00 p.m.
Coming to America / From America
How do American children’s books stack up against those published in other countries? What are the differences that occur in publications in different nations? How does a book change when it’s translated for Americans, or even just republished? Join a distinguished panel including Sophie Blackall, Nora Krug, and Bo Zaunders as they unravel these sticky questions.
Sophie Blackall, Australian by birth, has illustrated such books as the New York Times Best Illustrated Big Red Lollipop, as well as this year’s Aldous Huxley picture book The Crows of Pearlblossom, the twisted Spinster Goose, and the sweet Are You Awake? which proves that Ms. Blackall is truly familiar with kids. She also creates art on the Missed Connections blog where random encounters are immortalized through her art.
Nora Krug is a German artist who, amongst her other talents, has illustrated the children’s book My Cold Went on Vacation for Penguin Putnam and created the graphic novel Red Riding Hood Redux which takes the classic fairytale and places you in various characters’ shoes. She is currently an associate professor in the Illustration Program at Parsons, The New School.
Bo Zaunders originally hails from Sweden and has illustrated two children’s books and has done editorial illustrations for The New York Times Book Review, Smithsonian Magazine, Gourmet, Advertising Age, and Conde Nast Traveler. More recently, he has written four nonfiction children’s books, all illustrated by his wife, Roxie Munro.
This program will be held in the Berger Forum (Room 227)
