Oliver Jeffers

The Bologna Book Fair is happening this week across Bologna which means there are tonnes of exciting events, exhibitions and talks happening everyday.  Yesterday at the Academy I was fortunate enough to listen to a lecture by the artist/illustrator,  Oliver Jeffers.   He talked about his life as an artist and how he works to achieve artistic goals, it made for a very inspiring lecture.  Though he primarily works making children's picture books he has expanded and his work can be seen across various platforms - turns out I have seen his work without even knowing it. 


 

 
 
Picture books aren't just for children.  They share a simple story in it's simplest way.
