Highlight from BCIS “Fantasy Tales” Exhibit

Tomorrow night is the opening of this exhibit, and the Scatter Joy Center for the Arts posted this highlight on illustrator Pat Achilles:

On Friday June 24, Scatter Joy’s new exhibit “Fantasy Tales” opens, featuring the work of members of the Bucks County Illustrators Society. Pat Achilles is not only one of the founders of this incredible group, she’ll be showing her work, too. Here, she shares some of the inspiration that shapes her work.

Strings, horns and woodwinds are beautiful in their design as well as being functional. I think that’s one reason I chose to draw the Pied Piper for ‘Fantasy Tales,’ to work a beautiful instrument into fanciful story.”
