This is a treasure of a video by Debi Gliori and it is wonderful to watch her draw and tell the story of her life.
Jon yesterday, spoke of his love of Debi's East Lothian studio, here are some pictures of Debi working hard in that studio.
Debi Gliori like Nick Sherratt, another Picture Hooks mentor, is a treasured illustrator. Debi has over 70 published picture books and novels and most people with children will own at least one. Lately she has been experimenting and working with charcoal and somehow, by magic or hairspray, manages to keep this unruly medium in control.
Above and Below are double page spreads from The Trouble with Dragon's.
Below a spread from 'Stormy Weather'.
I LOVE the video!
