*childrensillustrator is a club for Children's Illustrators, that means people who illustrate for children. Professional Children's Book Illustrators, but also those who work for Editorial, Advertizing, Television and Film, Graphics/Promotional/3-D, Fine Art, are welcomed as well as students and amateur illustrators. Our members use several mediums such as collage, mixed media, paint, pen & ink, pastel, silkscreen & fabric, watercolor, color pencil, pencil/graphite, and also the digital tool. The goal of this group is to help children's illustrators to create, to improve and to share in their field.

Everything you’d like to know about the Club can be found in this journal.

Each month, our members vote (by poll) for their preferred theme/topic. Usually they have 24 hours to vote, and when it's done, they have until the 30 of each month to submit their brand new piece, related to the topic.

The chosen topic for January was Owl. Creatures of the night and symbol of wisdom, this little winged friends inspired our members this way:

I don't know if I feel wiser after so many beautiful owls, but I certainly am happier. What's your take on the topic?

Stay tuned for more fabulous children's illustrations next month!
