Wildwood is now a part of the Society of Illustrators Permanent Collection!
Thank you to Carson Ellis @carsonellis for generously donating this original illustration from Wildwood Imperium to our collection, enshrining it in illustration history. Wildwood Imperium won a Silver Medal in the 2014 Original Art exhibition, and this work was featured in the recent SI exhibit, All Around Us: The Art of Carson Ellis.

Tomorrow morning, you can join illustrator Carlos Aponte @carlosvisualdiary live from his art studio for Virtual Saturday Stories! Carlos will discuss his picture book Precious, a beautiful and tender story about a boy who holds onto community and what is most dear in trying times.
Carlos will share a behind-the-scenes look at his illustrations and reach Precious aloud, followed by a drawing workshop. Using simple geometric shapes, follow along as Carlos guides you to draw the dog Pedrito.
Grab paper and pencil for a fun and easy short drawing session. Great for picture book fans of all ages!

Last month we hosted Cartoonists Celebrate America 250 & The Republic of Satire.
The evening featured presentations from award-winning cartoonists Ann Telnaes @anntelnaes, Pedro X. Molina @pxmolina, and Steve Brodner @sbrodner. Historian of early American culture and visual art Nan Wolverton from the American Antiquarian Society chronicled satire’s central place in American political debate, and free speech advocate Roslyn Mazer reviewed satire’s protection under the First Amendment.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for this important discussion. Plus a special thank you to @herbblockfoundation for making the event possible.
