Sue Ramá

I love illustrating works for young people! My goal is to speak directly to the heart and spirit of each reader. I like to offer a vision of the world where curiosity and creativity are lovingly supported, and children feel empowered to follow their hearts.

The style for a book and the media I use emerge organically, (almost magically, It sometimes seems), as I interpret each work. I have been privileged to illustrate the works of some great writers, so it's been a wonderful ride to date.
