Young Illustrator's Competition
Yet again a wonderful selection of diverse work was entered in the Young Illustrator's Competition. Many of the drawings were bold, using an assorted mix of colours, strong pencil strokes and etchings to depict images of voyages to the moon, family unity or frustrations and calming reflections of life in an enchanted garden. We are always amazed at the way in which an idea is interpreted and brought to life on paper.
Our Judge Eve White had the wonderful task of selecting the top three winners and ten runners up, and although we are unable to select even more drawings and illustrations to feature in the Children's Story Book, we are extremely glad that we had the opportunity to view so many talented pieces of work.
