Sue Ramá

I love illustrating works for kids! My goal is to speak directly to the heart and spirit of each reader. I want to offer a rich vision of the world where kindness can be found and curiosity and creativity are supported. If I can bring some inspiration or joy to one child, I figure I've really accomplished something.

The media and style I use emerges quite organically as I interpret each unique story. As I have been privileged to illustrate the works of some great writers, so far, it's been a wonderful ride.
