SCBWI Oregon

GRAPHIC NOVELS 101 with Janna Morishima ⭐ Registration closes January 8th ⭐

Come meet Ryan Bear and enjoy his work!

Come join us! Like the Write Direction, this free meet-up is a chance for illustrators to get together informally and chat, share work and ideas, and make new friends. 🎨 First meeting April 15th.

Covering the state of Oregon, our region is led by Regional Advisor Laura Byrd, with support from Illustrator Coordinator Robin Chilstrom and an Advisory Committee. As volunteers, our goal is to help our members learn their craft and grow as creators and kidlit enthusiasts.

Each season we feature a different Illustrator's work on our homepage. Francie Towne is featured this winter. She lives in a small, noisy house in Bend, Oregon with three October-loving kids, a nerdy, chemistry-teaching husband and a cat named Figgy Pudding. If you would like to be featured as our seasonal artist, contact Robin at: oregon-ic@scbwi.org

Hey, Oregon Illustrators! Whether you’re a current or future PAL, prefer picture books or graphic novels, work digitally or on paper, or wear multiple KidLit hats, you'll find illustration-specific news and information here.
