ILLUSTRATION AS DECOR

I illustrated my first design in the summer of '86 on a white crisp sheet of typing paper that was tightly secured under a clamp with a raised image beneath. What should have been another hand me down toy (tattered box included) from my two older sisters, turned out to be the beginnings of a lifelong passion. That summer I selected and shaded so many Fashion Plates designs. I sketched through reams of typing paper and sharpen my colored pencils down to nubs...all for the sake of fashion. I recently started illustrating again and the rush of creating is still vibrant. I will continue to explore my lost art but in the meantime, I have added the works of some amazing illustrators to my art wall collection. Here are some of my favs:
