Let's Talk Illustrators #324: Jenny Lucander
Today I'm talking to Jenny Lucander about Freya and the Snake, written by Fredrik Sonck. You can tell from the cover that this is a playful book with a lot of serious layers to it, and I'm excited to share our conversation here about the process behind making the illustrations for this unique book. Enjoy!

Down to the Last Detail: MINH AND THE MAGIC GRAINS OF RICE
I'm so excited about this foil! It looks blue-purple at first, but as you move it around it turns into a rainbow foil!

Let's Talk Illustrators #323: Catarina Sobral
I am pleased to share my interview with Catarina Sobral about Ashimpa: The Mysterious Word , translated by Julianna Barbassa, here today! This is a particularly exciting interview for me because I have owned the Portuguese edition for over a decade, and now that it's publishing in English I have a chance to show you the process behind making it! Enjoy taking a closer look at this gorgeous and whimsical book with me!
