Superhero Children's Book I worked on this children's book over the summer. -
Do the books have to be published after starting an SVS course? I’m assuming yes
-
@danielerossi Well, to be honest, I guess anyone can publish a book but taking the classes makes the illustrator improve.
I self publish on Amazon and the classes have really helped but, I can see a lot of places I can improve on myself. Finishing a book is a great learning tool to. You can see where you need help -
Wow, so cool to see all these! Let's keep this thread going

I have one Picture book in Norwegian came out in 2020:

The book did OK. I received my first loyalty report right before the summer holiday :-), very cool. I was also commissioned to do another book with similar concept for the same publisher. I just wrapped up the project before the summer holiday, and the book is coming out this September as well :-).

And here is another book that will also be out this September.

Personally, I have a very mixed feeling about the last book. But as Jake Parker always says "finished, not perfect".
Right now, I moved on to the next picture book which will be a non-fiction book. I am also writing my own picture book, a completely new adventure.I also did a book cover art and some interior work for a YA fantasy novel.

The book got some attention in the country, and I have seen the book poping up around in the city, and around social media and news paper/magazine reviews. It was really cool to see. Unfortunately, there is no tradition to have the illustrator´s name on the cover (I have asked for this, but the AD said "sorry, we can not do that"). So I did not get much benefit from it apart from being happy to see the book around

Hi! This is my first post here. My brother and I self published a book on Amazon last year. My brother, a Physical Ed Teacher and Coach, wrote it and I did all the illustrations and layouts. As a long ago Art grad I knew I needed help to get to a pro level. I needed to find a place to level myself up as a children’s book illustrator and creator. I’m currently taking the Children’s Book Pro class and I’m blow away with how much I didn’t know. I’m also impressed with how much more of a reality my long time goals are becoming thanks to Jake, Lee and Will.
Thank you ALL at SVS!

@Blayne-Fox beautiful illustrations!
@Jeremy-Ross You've made 3 mustard books! I've been meaning to order one but didn't know there were 3! Great work!
@xin-li Just...Wow, haha -
Hello. I've illustrated books with Red Robin Books Ltd, in the UK. I've done about 12 story books with them plus a lot of educational books and a set of 25 book set for Mathematics. Then I've illustrated and designed 8 picture books for self publishing authors.
And I still havent settled on what my style is! smh
I have most of them on my website. Need to add a few that have been completed.

Hi @Jeremiahbrown, thank you for your kind words! Mustard Thinks Twice is my personal fav.

This is such a cool thread, it's wonderful to see everyone's work!! I actually just published my first book in May. It's called "The Broken Paintbrush", written by Rachel Rogers and Buddy Lieberman, and published by Hazel Grace Press. Although I still have a long way to go in my illustration work, this was really fun to work on and I'm pretty proud of it
Here's to many more books!https://hazelgracepress.square.site/product/the-broken-paintbrush-paperback/39?cs=true&cst=custom
