Thanks for sharing that. Perhaps you could elaborate on what he means when he said he illustrates then adds the story.

[MOO]

@tombarrettillo Well, he does exactly that. He does all the illustrations before he writes the story! I guess he must have the ideas for the movement fo the story but he doesn't write it until the illustrations are done!

[tombarrettillo]

ok, I see. For stories he is writing. I just found it hard to believe he would do illustrations without reading a manuscript, but that scenario makes more sense.

Quotes I wrote down:

Kristine Brogno - "Books that delight most let children in on the secret (images)."
Dan Santat - "Don't think of yourself as drawing spreads, think of yourself as DESIGNING a book."
- recommends book "GO - A Kidd's Gide to Graphic Design" by Chip Kidd
