Christian Robinson is a 2016 Caldecott Honoree and also received a Coretta Scott King Illustrator Honor for his art in Last Stop on Market Street by Matt de la Peña (Putnam, 2015); de la Peña himself took home the 2016 Newbery Medal, awarded by the Association for Library Service to Children for the “most distinguished book for children.”

I just love Robinson’s style of illustration. His social media handle and website title is The Art of Fun and his work just exudes that, FUN! Robinson uses cut paper, painting, collage, colored pencil and other mixed media forms. Art of the Picture Book did a great interview with him in 2015. Read it here.
