Lea Lyon presents "The Making of a Picture Book"
Lea Lyon is our own East Bay meeting coordinator and the illustrator
coordinator for SCBWI South. She's a published writer and
illustrator. She'll present "The Making of a Picture Book" from the
illustrator's perspective which will hold insight and tips for
illustrators and writers, alike.
Lea will discuss the actual creation of the book, from breaking the
text into pages, thumbnails, dummies, final spreads, to the printed
book. Don't miss the many angles and tips she's learned through the
years of workshops and illustrating. Plus, she'll share invaluable
insights and ideas about marketing yourself to art directors and
publishers.
And, Shhhhhhhhh, don't tell. She'll also dispel some myths about
children's book illustration - things like "the author chooses the
illustrator."
We'll meet at the YWCA in Berkeley as the River of Words is in the
process of moving. $5 collected at door.
$5 Members/$10 Non-Members - Registration is AT THE DOOR ONLY - there
is no advance registration.
Cash or checks only.
If you would like to volunteer to bring snacks or to handle
registration, or if you have questions, please contact Margaret
