Let's Talk Illustrators #315: Britta Teckentrup

Late last year I took a trip to Holland and visited the Anne Frank house. Suffice it to say, walking through the house was one of the most impactful moments of my life. When I received The House on the Canal by Thomas Harding and Britta Teckentrup a few months later, it felt like fate to interview prolific illustrator Britta about her process. It's my honor to share that process with you all today. Enjoy the read!

Down to the Last Detail: ROCK

There is a really cool texturized coating on the rock on the cover of this book! It's very hard to show off on camera, but make sure you find a copy and give it a feel––it's awesome!
