Copyright

Copyright on these images varies. It is best to assume that modern, living artists have full copyright on their work. I am using them under 'fair use' with, at least I try to, full acknowledgement and links to appropriate sites. I would advise others to always check if possible as artists (understandably) vary as to their tolerance of re-use of their works.

Mission

This blog features children's book illustrators - old and new. But I do go 'off topic' as I love other works that illustrate and illuminate fairy tales, myth and the world of fantasy.
