THE PIECE BY PIECE OF REVISION with Stephanie Shaw ⭐ Registration closes December 2nd ⭐

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.

Come meet Philip Roop and enjoy his work!

Each season we feature a different Illustrator's work on our homepage. Julia Karlinsky is featured this fall. Julia was born in Russia but has lived in Oregon for many years and is a long-time Oregon SCBWI member. And just last month she just joined our regional team as the Oregon SCBWI Newsletter layout artist! 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.
