The Margaret River Cow Parade is finishing up- we got this cover illustration in just in time.
The cows are being auctioned on July 10. Get down to the South West and see them while you still can.
In the back right, I’ve included a cow painted by myself and other members of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, WA chapter. Check out this post for more info.
Earlier this year, myself and other local members of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) painted a fibreglass cow.
It was an art project for the Cow Parade, which came to Margaret River in March.
The cow features paintings by SCBWI illustrators Matt Ottley, Frane Lessac, Shannon Melville, Sam Hughes, Karen Blair, Briony Stewart and Wendy Binks. The cow also features cover images from books by SCBWI authors.
The finished cow was on display at McLeod Creek Wines during the Parade…
…but is now at the State Library in the children’s Mezzanine section. Stop by and say moo sometime.
Have a squiz at Frane Lessac’s blog for more pictures of our group at work.
Local members of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) are part way through painting a cow.
Why, I hear you ask? Before you call the RSPCC, it’s not a real cow… it’s an art project for the Cow Parade, coming to Margaret River in March.
