Children's Book Illustration

Hello everybody!! Welcome to my blog for advance drawing and illustration course at Bangkok University International College :)

My Career Path
I chose my career path with children's book illustration because it quite looks funny for me and it can be fulfill my imagination through my drawing. So I think this type might be fit for me to do. Almost children's book illustrations are cartoony and fantasy. It usually used for description in kids' tale or books which is for children like textbooks etc.

My Inspiration
I found many inspirations from the internet.
