You\u2019ve submitted your book dummy, sketches, or art samples and wonder why the phone isn\u2019t ringing yet. Kerry Martin, Senior Designer at Clarion Books in New York City, will discuss the process of creating a picture book from initial sketch stage to the finished product, including what goes on behind the scenes while you wait for a response. Also discussed will be the dos and don\u2019ts of sending unsolicited art samples. Private portfolio reviews will precede the discussion.<\/p>\n
