Lauren Castillo (
@StudioCastillo), author and illustrator of
The Troublemaker and
Nana in the City (
@HMHKids), stops by to talk about how the illustrating process changes when you're painting your own story, having her art on display at the Society of Illustrators Original Art show, and breaking down the manuscript into spreads and watching the words disappear.
Lauren, you're such a sweetheart and your work is so wonderful, this was truly a joy to listen to! I adore hearing more about "the person" along with the process :) I've drawn a few things from the VHS screen, too (though I was an adult doing this) and yes, trying to get the tape to stop at the exact same spot became a skill in itself lol I listen to Matthew when I do artwork, too. If I didn't mind earbuds in my ears, I'd listen while I clean house! Thank you both for this great 100th podcast!!! :)
