Chuneunsil

Lo único que pude averiguar sobre Chun eun sil (cheon eun sil) es que es coreana y que es una ilustradora bien chingona...



























... las imágenes que puse son poquitas porque tiene unas enooormes que vale la pena mejor ver (y bien) en su site, osea en Chuneunsil y, también en su flickr, osea aquí


Salute!

Any advice on how others can start on their own children’s book?

Write everyday — carry a small notebook with you and write down any/all ideas because you will forget some of them if you don’t. READ books, tons of them, and read to kids. Join or form writing groups with others who have the same goal. That kind of support is so valuable. (I was in a really special group in KC with some amazing artist friends — ALL of who are now published.)
Don’t be too attached to a story when you are still developing it — write it from different angles, just like you would make tons of compositional studies.
Write from your own experiences or something unique to you. And be patient — I can share from experience, some stories demand a long incubation time to manifest. You can ask people for feedback or advice, but take it all lightly — everyone will have different opinions. When you finish a story, read it out loud, and read it to kids. Hearing the story out loud and how they respond helps so much. If you plan to illustrate it, make a dummy of your book in pencil and focus on your point of view and compositions.
This helps a publisher see your vision and character development. From my experience, publishers prefer this to any finished illustrations. Show, don’t tell — let your images and writing complement each other, not repeat the same ideas. Again, read your dummy to kids and learn from their reactions.
When you get your ‘dummy’ finished, show it (along with examples of your illustration) to publishers who publish books you admire and where your book might naturally fit in — not as in a category or box, but like you would choose an agent’s group or a gallery. Stay positive and keep writing!

"I used to think my work looked a bit schizophrenic."










"If you draw or paint to please other people, you will always be dissatisfied and unsure. One can never really know what anyone else will think. If you do it for yourself, and avoid the fear of ‘looking stupid’ or ‘doing it wrong’ you will get lost in the process and then the amazing stuff happens."
