Publisher's Synopsis
FROM BLACK AND WHITE TO COLOR demonstrates the journey of a picture book illustrator from black and white illustrations to full color ones. Over a period of five years, from 2015 to 2020, the author had Gau Family Studio, a company dedicated to picture book illustration, illustrate nineteen of her books. During that whole period, the author collaborated with Cindy Nguyen, Project Manager at Gau Family Studio, on creating and perfecting the illustrations for her stories. Black and white illustrations from each of the nineteen picture books which the author and Cindy Nguyen collaborated on getting illustrated are presented in this volume, alongside their final, full color version, so the reader can follow the illustrator's journey from non-color to the world of color, and gain insight into the journey taken by a skilled illustrator of picture books.
