![]() I began pursuing illustration on my own, and started attending SCBWI conferences and workshops. I worked in the graphic design field after college, doing in-house and freelance jobs. I went to the University of Wisconsin-Stout to study graphic design, and my school required many studio art classes as well (drawing, painting, etc). What is your background with writing and illustration? (job, education, life experiences) She has also won awards from the Society of Children's Books Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). Eliza focuses on traditional illustration with some digital touching-up and illustrates (and sometimes writes) picture books like Miss Maple Seeds and This is Our Baby Born Today along with creating covers and chapter illustrations for middle-grade novels like Doll Bones and Spirit's Key. ![]() While that first meeting was about two years ago, I have since revisited our discussion for this interview. After seeing her first book Miss Maple Seeds and flipping through the colorful pages filled with charming hand-drawn illustrations, I connected with Eliza for a school assignment. My very first interview is with children's book writer and illustrator, Eliza Wheeler. ![]()
