Igloo books - How to Draw

I was commissioned by Green Android Ltd. in 2011 to come up with a cover, and Ideas for the interior pages of this children's art book to be published by Igloo books. The project grew, and ultimately I made and photographed all the projects, drew the illustrations, and designed both the interior spreads, and cover. I used an eclectic mix of materials and techniques, designed to inspire children to get creating.
