Florence Minor

    Wendell Minor est un artiste et auteur dont l'œuvre est profondément nourrie par l'amour du monde naturel et de l'environnement. Ses illustrations pour les livres pour enfants, souvent sur des thèmes environnementaux, découlent de recherches approfondies et d'une expérience personnelle de chaque lieu qu'il dépeint. Il voyage à travers les États-Unis, des régions arctiques aux déserts, pour capturer avec fidélité l'essence des paysages. L'art de Minor, qui relie le monde visuel à la joie de la lecture, a été reconnu par des prix et des expositions dans des musées et institutions de premier plan.
