erika lebarreerika@erikalebarre.comBioErika LeBarre has always been exposed to art one way or another as she grew up. Her father worked as a car designer for the big three until he retired, and her mother was and still is a ceramicist. Erika's parents always encouraged her creative side.

She worked at an art studio with other illustrators and designers for over four years. Since then she has worked as a freelance illustrator out of her home. “Erika's work is beautiful and highly original. She always comes through with knock-out work, on time and without a hassle.

Jane Smithjane@superjane.comBioJane Smith loves paper. She has boxes and boxes of it, all organized by color. She enjoys creating collages that celebrate a child’s discovery of the world around them. Her work strives to capture those little moments when for the very first time a snail is revealed beneath a leaf or a garbage truck is seen out the window. And when the challenge of marrying a novelty element with images with text comes up, Jane is particularly excited. There is nothing more satisfying than a perfectly timed lift-the-flap or a surprising pop-up!
Jed Alexanderjedalexander@sbcglobal.netBioIf you're looking for a classic and timeless look, my work harks back to the golden age of 20th century children's book illustration, but with a contemporary feel and rich palette. After working in the editorial field for 10 years for such publications as LA Weekly, The Sacramento News and Review and The Santa Cruz Metro, I was inspired to return to my first love, children's illustration. To further this aim, I created a portfolio inspired by classic children's tales, for which I received best in show at the North/Central Society of Children's Book Writer's and Illustrator's Spring Spirit conference in 2010. I also received an Ignatz nomination for my graphic novel work for Alternative Comics. I studied illustration at San Jose State University where I received my degree. I am a current member of SCBWI.
