The average children’s picture book has around 500 words with so much more of the story happening in the illustrations. In this insightful and practical workshop, illustration expert Brian Fitzgerald will take participants on a journey, beginning with a discussion on his own personal explorations of different illustrative styles and how he settled on just one.

You’ll discuss everything from colour palettes to techniques and how finding your signature style can help you connect more deeply with the story in front of you and help you make your mark in the world of illustration.

Brian Fitzgerald is an award-winning Irish illustrator who publishes in Ireland, the UK and the USA.
