  • Résumé

  • Each week on The Illustrator’s Studio, the staff of the Norman Rockwell Museum speak with an artist, collector, or scholar on a number of topics related to their work and the field of illustration. From illuminated manuscripts to illustrated children’s books to role-playing and video games, each discussion examines the vast history of the art form. These casual conversations will showcase veteran illustrators, artists facing deadlines, and up-and-coming talent on the life, career, and interests of each guest.
