Agnes Indre
Retreat through the windows of reality is always fun, leading us to our childhood or any other dream (it’s also good for you and being an illustrator, I even get paid to do just that). However, you have to be cautious with professionalism and styles in children’s illustrations. In my opinion, deep in their hearts, kids dislike an overly professional attitude, and honestly, true adventures have little in common with the subtleties of style. Yet, I value believability: kids or I have no interest in the highest castles if it is impossible to live in them, or at least draw them… so, I’d say, imagination comes first.
