Cathy June Illustration Details
As a child I loved to draw, sew and make things. Later photography, portraiture and gardening became favorite activities as well. In about 1995 I discovered soft pastels as a wonderful medium for portraits, landscapes and still life. It is still my medium of choice sometimes used with gouache and ink. I became interested in illustration for children once I began working at Chemers Gallery where I am surrounded and inspired by not only fine art, but also exceptional original children's book illustration, some of the best in the industry. Some of my many favorite illustrators are David Christiana, Mary Grandpre, Matt Faulkner, and Mary Newell DePalma. I love using the skills I've learned from drawing portraits, and landscapes in pastels to "tell a story" with pictures. I've illustrated my first book, "We Eat Food That's Fresh" by Angela Russ, published by Our Rainbow Press released in the summer of 2009. It has won the 2010 Benjamin Franklin Award Children's Book & Audio Set 2009 Moonbeam Awards Best Illustrator: Silver Award and Picture Book Preschool - Silver Award. My husband and I live in Southern, California and are now enjoying our grandchildren who provide endless inspiration for children's illustration.
