How Meeow turns a big cardboard box into an exciting fire engine with the help of some red paint, a pair of green scissors, his little yellow chair and a blue mug makes a perfect introduction to colours. It is also an inspiration for all about creating imaginary play.
French Illustrator Sebastien Braun studied fine and applied arts at Strasbourg University.
He then taught applied arts before becoming a freelance illustrator, first of all for editorial clients in Paris. When Sebastien moved to London in 2000 he developed his illustrations for children and since then has been working exclusively on children’s picture books.
He has a rare ability to combine rich painting techniques with soft and tender observational drawing, perfect for picture books. Sebastien lives with his wife and two sons in London.
