How to Illustrate a Children’s Book in Two Hours, with Micky Keidar and his Amazing Art Students

The first step was to find an eager group of very talented high school students and bring them to Shenkar College. That was Micky’s job.

We first had a tour of the printing press that will print our book when it’s ready. Nir Burshteyn explained how digital printing works.

Micky explained to the students (aged 14-17) that they would illustrate a children’s story together. And then I would publish it. The students were up to the challenge.

They stretched.

They hugged.

They were ready.

Let the work begin.

The sun went down.

They ignored the view and kept on working.

We took a short tour of Shenkar College. They loved it!

And now, all that’s left is to admire these wonderful teenagers and their amazing artistic talents, and wait for the book to be published. Don’t worry. I’ll share, of course.
