The State Library of WA has a new exhibition beginning November 2nd called Picture A Story, comprising works from their Australian children’s book illustration collection.
You’ll see artwork by Shaun Tan, Ron Brooks, Graeme Base, Alison Lester, Frane Lessac, Leigh Hobbs, Matt Ottley, Sean E Avery and me!
There’ll be originals, sketches and sculptures I made for The Last Viking… including this little reference maquette for Josh.
And as you probably noticed at the top of the post, Wolverine is the official mascot of the exhibition!
