pp: research - morag hood



Morag Hood is a picture book illustrator who currently resides in Edinburgh. I chose to talk about her work because I love the simplicity and quirkiness of her children's books. the story speaks for itself without having overly complicated imagery and i think that this is quite similar to my own work, as someone who struggles with backgrounds and over complicating things. her picture books are funny, which is something that i would also love to replicate in my own work, as children love a funny book, they don't always have to be deep with a ingrained moral.

if i was to email her i would ask:

what is your creative process? 

how do you start to brainstorm your ideas?

how did you first get into the children's book scene?

would you recommend being freelance or having representation to help you?
