New Book : The Prince and The Pauper

A new book " The Prince and the Pauper " has been recently released.

I illustrated the English novel written by Mark Twain for the Korean publishing house Agaworld.

Set in 1547, the novel tells the story of two young boys who are identical in appearance : Tom, a pauper who lives with his abusive family in London and Prince Edward, son of King Henry VIII.

" The Prince and the Pauper "  is a traditionally book done in watercolor with touch-ups of colored pencil and pastel.

The time schedule was short, about 70 days and the book size large 470mm(w) x 330mm(h).

I usually illustrate children's  animal art  and I really loved doing a book with people!

I started the book with an intense historical research and  the roughs which were approved with only slight corrections.

And here you go with a few of my favorite pages of the book :

During the Children's Book Fair in Bologna, 19th-22nd March, you'll  be able to see some illustrations taken from this book  displayed in Agaworld's booth H30- A56. 

My new Website on-line!

Hello,

I'd like to inform you that my new Website is now on-line.

Finally!

   I've totally redesigned  and rebuilt it in my spare time ( last year I illustrated four new books  …), with Rapidweaver ," a web design application  that allows you to design & create a beautiful website on your Mac. "

I've found helpful RapidWeaver Classroom (video tutorials), " the most comprehensive RapidWeaver training ."

In addition I used  the Plugin  Carousel (it builds an animated bar thumbnails from your images ) and RWmultitool 2  (an external image-editor dedicated to RWthemes).

The Website consists of five basic pages :

ILLUSTRATION PORTFOLIOS

Illustration Portfolios   (I decided to show only a selected number of my images, both new and old, which I believe embody the true essence of my style; I divided this selection into three subpages, which will be updated from time to time.)

Subpages:

• New Books   ( I collected some of the illustrations taken from recently or soon-to-be  published books. The target may vary from 0-5 years to young adults.)

• Picture Books  ( I collected some of the published commissioned illustrations as well as some of my book projects. Target 0-5 years.)

• Non Fiction   (I collected some of the published commissioned work as well as personal promotion works for a target ranging from 5 years to young adults and older.)
