On the Varoom website they have been reviewing work of 2013 which they feel made them "think a bit differently about illustration" Looking through each artist I was drawn to the work of Serena Katt who has just created a book, Sunday's Child, which uses illustration to show the narrative journey of her Grandfather in the Hitler Youth. Not only was I interested by the story and message the artist had chosen to illustrate, I really enjoyed her pieces which were created in an unusual and beautiful way. She describes her working method as applying ink with rollers for blocks of colour and them working over this with pencil crayons and watercolour. I love the strangely drawn characters, the unusual story and the way she has kept to a basic colour scheme.
