Holly Sterling: Illustration Friday

Illustration Friday - Voice

This Illustration Friday post was fitting for celebrating both World Book Day and the completion of my first full picture book with Frances Lincoln.

It has been a crazy time getting the book ready for Bologna, but it is finally finished and has been sent to repro. Here is a little vignette from an interior page where a brother and sister are lovingly reading their favourite book together.

Happy World Book Day!!

A bit more about me...

In 2009 I graduated from The University of Sunderland with first class honours degree in Illustration and Design.

I was highly Commended for the Macmillan Illustration Prize and the winner of the Seven Stories/Frances Lincoln Illustration Competition in 2013.

After completing my Masters degree from Edinburgh College of Art in 2013, I worked at a greeting card company in the North East of England designing cards for charities such as Macmillan Cancer Support, PDSA, RSPB, Epilepsy Action, Sue Ryder and Traidcraft.

After a year in the industry, I decided to make freelancing for children's book a full-time commitment, with work published by Walker Books, Frances Lincoln, Seven Stories and Egmont.
