Many THANKS to our Speaker... Kathryn Hewitt!

On Monday night,
April 20th,
in our luxurious Pico salon,
the Westside Illustrators
enjoyed a
splendiferous evening
with our engaging
guest speaker...
writer and illustrator,
Kathryn Hewitt

Surrounded by a collection of her published books
and original paintings, Kathryn generously shared her life and work.
We were treated to an informative and humorous slide presentation,
full of photos & stories & artwork & fun. We examined her dummies and storyboards and sketches up close, asked a ton of questions,
got books signed, ate goodies & laughed a lot!

Many, many thanks to Kathryn for educating,
entertaining and most of all...inspiring us!!
