picture hooks is a mentoring scheme which is funded by Creative Scotland. The idea is to encourage up and coming illustrators who are interested in children's books. They are paired up with a professional illustrator for a year who becomes their mentor and helps them to grow as artists. The works that are produced through this scheme will be exhibited in Scottish National Gallery from 29th October to 26th February and during this time each pair will give a talk/Q&A/workshop event. This scheme seems to be aimed at postgraduate students and may be something I could pursue after this year is completed. I have managed to book a space on each of the five separate talks as I would be interested to see their work, their processes and learn about their experience of being mentored.
