2010 SCBWI Illustrator Mentorship Award Winners!
Many thanks to the SCBWI for the Illustrator Mentorship Awards; the six of us learned SO MUCH at our mentorship sessions on the weekend. We also had fun hanging out with each other, exchanging tips and advice, and we plan to keep in touch after we all go home.
In fact, we've decided to launch a joint online project soon...stay tuned!

Oh wow. I was impressed BEFORE I knew what the Mentorship Award meant. Now I'm really impressed. What a great opportunity!
Good for you!
