I fell in love with Jillian Tamaki when I saw her illustrations for an article about Children's Books in Cookie Magazine last month. (Even though I'm a bigger fan of Wonder Time Magazine than Cookie, I still dig their commissioned illustrators) Go to Jillian's website and I think you'll fall in love with her work too. It really draws you into the dream state she creates with her soft, inky lines and soothing color palette. The imagery and style have a nostalgic quality that is comforting but still contemporary. I'm eager to check out her book Skim that will apparently be out this Spring. She was gracious enough to give me permission to write about her, so thanks for the okay Jillian!
