PICTURE THIS – Shortlist Announced

As you know from my blog (21st June 2011) I entered this year’s PICTURE THIS. This is Waterstone’s search to find a talented new picture book illustrator. The 2011 competition was to find a new illustrator for Michael Morpurgo’s Beauty and the Beast. My entries can now be viewed in the portfolio.

The first stage closed on the 4th July 2011 and a shortlist of 7 candidates were announced on the 29th July 2011…sadly I was not one of them, but the chosen entries are very talented, each has a very different art style and definitely have potential to go onto successful illustration careers.

For more details and to view examples of the illustrations from the 7 shortlisted entrants, check out PICTURE THIS at Waterstones.com

Other entrants have shared their entries on the PICTURE THIS Flickr page. Check it out!

Winner to be announced in the autumn!
