Don't listen to that fellow who obviously has no clue how involved the illustration process really is! I have read thousands of picture books to my classes, and I am always in awe of the amount of beautiful artwork that one artist has created just for that book, so that I can turn the page and briefly admire each one, before reading on. I love your painting at the top, that would be so attractive on a book cover! And thank you for describing the process so well!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05600673251180423439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223349781550608010.post-57718923711554916502012-01-15T12:21:11.404+11:002012-01-15T12:21:11.404+11:00Dear Meera,

I used to work with very high caliber illustrators. I never saw such hard working people (they were all men, no women). They would sometimes work all night and all the next day to get things done and what they did was brilliant. Illustrators (like you) are fabulous! Good luck with your hand surgery--please tell us how it goes!

メ...Hi, HaniHani,<br />図太い人はいます。こうして色んな人で 社会は成立って入るのでしょう。<br />メクジラ立ててるヒマ有ったら、絵を描こう!で、時計の修理を待ってるあいだに描きました。おじちゃんと受付のカワイコちゃんはびっくらこいて居ました。私はいつもその場で描くのです。どこにいくにも、絵の具と紙は一緒です。絵具キットは2年前かな、自分で作りました。手のひらに収まります。元は日本の小さなstationary入れでした。いえいえ、私,普通の人です。あのね、HaniHani, 私がスケッチを始めたの、1998からです。偶然, 絵の雑誌でプロの速がきスケッチを見たの。動きや表情が生き生きと、まるで瞬間を捉えるように出てて、感動。私もしたい!と思ったの。一体何度挫けかけたか。人前なんて怖かったし、なにせ下手で遅かったわ。でも、頑張ったの。それとEnglishで言うでしょう, "You're not the centre of the world!" Hahahaha!あなたのblogにコメントした言葉は私の経験から出ています。少しづつでも、良くなってるのに気づいたら、嬉しかったし、単純に喜びました。一生懸命無我夢中でやって居るうちに気が付いたら、ここまで来てたの。それとネ、あるとき、友人が言ったの、"一生懸命やる、勤勉って才能なのよ"、と。実際、成人学級を垣間見て、いかに諦める人の方が多数かと痛感。私は自分がバカかと思って居ましたが、納得。あなたにその一言を送ります。 そして、いつの間にか、気が付いたら、周りから貴方はとっても前向きでpositiveな人ねえと言われていました!<br />Cheers, SadamiSadamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15072887743830381833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223349781550608010.post-90559852887707677662012-01-09T22:32:31.443+11:002012-01-09T22:32:31.443+11:00Oh, querido Francis,
