Episode 12 features an interview with children’s illustrator Jannie Ho. Her work is everywhere – books, educational magazines, toys, games, stickers, even dinnerware! She is the mother of a six year old daughter and her debut author/illustrator picture book, Bear and Chicken, is out now!
Jannie’s illustration is perfect for the children’s market and it was great to hear how her work and her new book developed. She loves Richard Scarry books from her childhood and you can really see the influence, which I love.
She also is a big proponent of day care for those of us with young children who do not have the luxury of family nearby. It can be an expensive necessity when working from home.
You can follow Jannie on Twitter and Instagram @chickengirldesign.
The show is syndicated on Illustration Age – with it’s own dedicated page now – and our theme music was created by Thomas James and Jason Ritz.
