Rosie Revere Engineer

The summer is nearly over but it's been a very busy time at Artist Partners with three new highly anticipated Children’s Picture Books being published this month!

Its all very exciting news!! The first of those books is the most recent one illustrated by David Roberts and I can say it's already creating a real buzz in Children’s Publishing circles!

Published by Abrams Books "Rosie Revere Engineer" is the follow up to the hugely successful Iggy Peck picture book, also written by talented author Andrea Beaty and beautifully illustrated by the ever popular David Roberts.
Reviewers in the US and Europe are naming it as  the book to watch, with a rhyming tale about a young girl living her dreams inventing gizmos and gadgets as a budding engineer!

Patrick George for Microsoft

Patrick George was commissioned by Cinco, Portland USA to provide a range of illustrations as part of a new campaign for Microsoft Global Recruiting.

Entitled "Right Now", the campaign storytelling breaks down into five themes about areas of work, such as natural user interfaces and cloud computing.
Part of the brief was wanting an irreverent attitude to come through, to be fun, playful and provocative, without being glib.

Angelina Tearoom

A treat of a job came to the desk of Lauren Mortimer, who was asked by Angelina Tearoom Paris to create three illustrations for their novelty tins. Lauren, using her quaint drawing skills has completed biscuit, chocolate and lollipop tin illustrations, she says "Angelina is a historical tea room in Paris, created in 1903 during the Belle Époque, so they wanted to illustrations that would portray this era and style." The tins are now looking great on their website and in the tearoom filled with the sweet things Angelina is so famous for.

60 Years of the Queen

Gail Armstrong produces a glorious cover illustration for the July issue of "Where? London" magazine. The issue celebrates 60 years since The Queen's Coronation and features related events and places of interest to visit around London. Gail's paper sculpture image is inspired by the crown jewels with the crenellations creating a skyline of some of London's notable landmarks. Art Director Tim Benton said of the piece "We were so impressed with Gail's unique craft. She has created a fantastic eye catching illustration for our 'Where?' cover to our exact specifications, whilst still putting a great deal of her own input into the work. She is a true artist...." The "note From the Editor" feature in the magazine also has a short piece with some photos about the making of the image; an added insight into Gail's creations.
