Three Rosy Cheek Children - Children Book Illustration. Female Illustrator
Located in Miami, FL
Legendary female illustrator creates a graphic and tightly designed triple portrait of her signature subjects. Kids!
Signed lower right. Unframed on heavy illustration board. Grace Drayton had a recognizable style which is a hallmark of all great artists. Instantly recognizable, a Grace Drayton subject is a stylized child with a cherubic style, often with round faces, plump bodies, rosy cheeks, and a happy disposition. Three Rosy Cheek Children is an excellent example of her best work.
