BOOKS, STORIES, ILLUSTRATION AND FUN AT LIBERTY BENTON ELEMENTARY.

School visits are one of the best parts of being a children’s book illustrator. I share my books, art and story with my young reader friends. A recent visit to Liberty Benton Elementary School was TOADALLY awesome! Many thanks to the staff and students who made our day a great celebration of children’s books, story illustration and drawing.

An exciting day of learning, laughing and looking at picture book illustration. Lot’s of questions, too.

Introducing LITTLE WHISTLE.

We take it, step-by-step and create some very funny characters. The room was full of artists!

A pencil and some paper… let’s DRAW!!!

These young students catch on, very quickly. Drawing is FUN!

Sharing some original art from my picture books and answering questions. Liberty Benton students ROCK!

Thank you, Josh Cottrell, for the school presentation pics.

Lunch was enjoyed with the teachers and table-top drawings by LB students. Art is everywhere! There must be a great art teacher in this school.

Well done, Liberty Benton. Your friend, Tim Bowers.
