April Guest Speaker: Angela Quezada Padron – From Artist to Illustrator
This event ended on
Children’s Book Author Angela Quezada Padron will inspire you with her journey as a children’s book author and illustrator, including her latest endeavor, her publishing company, Dream Jar Publishing.
She’ll explain how artists can use their talents to illustrate children’s books and how this work differs from creating fine art. You’ll get an overview of how to take a story and visualize it, plus tips on what works.
Dream Jar Publishing, her company in Estero, creates children’s books that encourage self-expression, promote perseverance and resilience, and empower young readers to believe in what’s possible. It publishes three or four children’s books a year and welcomes submissions from authors and illustrators.
