About Amy Schimler-Safford
Artist Statement
"I have worked as a textile designer and children’s illustrator for over two decades. My portfolio reflects my passion for color and pattern and I’ve been fortunate to design and illustrate products for a variety of clients globally including children’s apparel, toys, wall décor, fabrics, greeting cards, stationery, and children’s books and periodicals.
"My work has been well recognized and rewarded. My illustrated children’s books have been juried into the Society of Illustrator’s Original Art Show multiple times in the past few years. In 2010 “Why is the Sky Blue?” was paired with an Eric Carle title for Booktrust.org’s book bag program. Over 700,000 book bags were distributed to first year students throughout the UK. It is a privilege to share my work with you. Thanks for stopping by.
"For the past 10 years I have revisited the world of oil painting. Mixing oils to find just the right color is my favorite way to kill a rainy afternoon. I love to see how painting has informed my illustration work."
