About Me
- Eric Carle
- The Very Hungry Caterpillar is one of the more than 70 picture books that I have written and/or illustrated. I was born in the U.S. and was raised in Germany. My background is in graphic design but since the late 1960's when I illustrated Bill Martin Jr's Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? I have been creating books for children. My illustrations are collages made with my own hand-painted tissue papers, a technique many children have replicated and enjoyed in their classrooms and at home. With my late wife Barbara, I am also the cofounder of The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, MA.
What a cozy illustration! Once again, another winner Mr. Carle. Thank you for your talent and blessing the lives of so many around the world with your work.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful feeling in this picture! So warm, joyful and cozy. I'm Russian, and we indeed drink lots and lots of tea and eat lots and lots of bread, traditionally. Here is to you - as I am having a cup of chamomile tea, dear Eric!
ReplyDeleteDear Mr. Carle,
ReplyDeleteI love your latest picture posted on Jan. 14th, as I am literally sitting here with my son researching your work eating toast and drinking tea :).
(I just happen to stumble upon this blog as we are researching you online)
I am teaching my son, Dylan, about your background and art techniques by watching some Youtube videos and reading your books, as he recently sprouted an interest in learning your techniques.
He is 5 years old and absolutely loves your books especially The Very Lonely Firefly and Pancakes, Pancakes!. My personal favorite is Mister Seahorse.
Thank you for inspiring my son and millions of other young artists and writers world wide.
Sincerely,
Wendi

Bread is also one of my favorite things, Mr. Carle. Not so much tea, but bread is excellent for the soul.
