I was talking the Senior Designer at Henry Holt they other day and I mentioned how much I liked Sarah Gibbs art. We were talking about how we like illustrated covers better than book covers with photos (sorry to all you photographers out there!) I was saying that I liked Sarah's version of The Nanny Diaries much better than the US version. Although I would add that Sarah is from the UK and her version looks so much more British, doesn't it? I think I like Sarah because she mixes a sort of poetic hand drawn line and watercolor. Sometimes when you look at some other illustrators work you can just imagine yourself enjoying a cup of tea with them simply by the quality of their art!

Hmmm, I wonder if anyone wants to have a cuppa tea with me by looking at my art? Probably a glass of wine because I have so much "wine art". Or maybe a glass of wine just becuse of my squiggly line work! ha!
