Featured Illustration – ‘Agatha’s Scooter’ by Anna Pignataro
Our second feature illustration is the charmingly playful Agatha’s Scooter, by Anna Pignataro, from her book, ‘Being Agatha’.

‘Agatha’s Scooter’ by Anna Pignataro from ‘Being Agatha’ (The Five Mile Press). Giclee print from the original watercolour, pencil, charcoal, collage. Print price $120
Anna Pignataro’s illustrations breath a whimsical charm and it really seems like the colours added via watercolour and snips of collage bring the charcoal and pencil sketches underneath to life. The illustration in our foyer, Agatha’s scooter, from the title page of the book, has the lovely sense of movement and play so often seen in young children entirely happy in their own company. At only 12cm x 12cm, this little print packs a big punch and would be a wonderful addition to a bedroom or play area; perhaps just next to the door to the backyard where your own scooters live!
