Lauren Child

Lauren Child is an author and illustrator most well known for her Charlie and Lola picture books and the Clarince Bean series of picture books and novels. Personal favorites of mine when I was growing up. Also something I've used as inspiration in previous works.
Lauren Child has a very unique style of illustration, she combines different textures and styles to create really interesting story books for children and in general just great art!

I want to incorporate some of the aspects Lauren uses in her illustrations in my own work, as I feel these works are very different than the norm. They are also very appealing to children.

I also like how the stories Lauren has created are quite relatable to children (with school and foods they perhaps not like), which will make the children want to read them!
