Many artists choose to use their about.me pages to display their art. This week, however we’d like to take a closer look specifically at children’s book illustrators. While their interests are diverse and extend far beyond illustration, all of them here used their works as a strong basis for great pages.
Among this group of artists we have imagination worker, Elissambura, of Argentina who illustrated this post header. Illustrator Bri Mercedes most enjoys drawing nature and fantasy creatures as you can see in her work of art below.

This week on our world tour we’re heading south, way south, to Chile. A very narrow country, its length nearly matches the width of the United States and is naturally full of different climates. They range from the driest dessert in the world, in the north, to one of the planet’s wettest regions, in the south.
The country also happens to be home to many wonderful about.me community members including our post header, Nicolas Copano, executive producer of MQLTV.com a Spanish-language television channel made for Youtube. We also have piano teacher, Michelle O’Ryan Gálvez and journalist Alejandro San Martín.
