About Me

My photo
Vincent Desjardins
Bloomington, IN, United States
I'm an illustrator who loves children's book illustration. In 2011, I illustrated my first children's book "Secrets of the Magic Ring," by Karen McQuestion. I am currently working on a non-fiction book for Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. The book is titled "Mercy, The Incredible True Story of Henry Bergh, Founder of the ASPCA," by Nancy Furstinger and is due to be released in the Spring of 2016. I have also illustrated four stories for FarFaria's iPad storybook app. I love animation, classic movies, movie soundtracks, broadway musicals and design from the arts and craft period to mid-century modern. I collect toys and all sorts of paper ephemera, often dealing with children's books or motion pictures. I also love reading comic books and graphic novels. I was the illustrator for Instinct magazine's health column from 2003 to 2005. In 2009, I had an article and tutorial published in Painter magazine (issue 35).
