They will be attracted to the cover illustration, or not, pick it up, or not and pay hard earned money for it, or not. My worry with ARTISTS judging book illustration is they have the same notions of what is good art and what is not as does the average Joe on the street. A landscape artist, for example, may just not appreciate cartoon illustration. If he/she were to be a judge, perhaps only very realistic book art would get a pass. Personally, since I have never had any art training or gone further then high school, I'd rather take my chances with a Librarian who see's a variety of illustration every day and also see's what the kids like!Christine Tripphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058419743726981987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7986595816238301046.post-44402312188559310112008-01-16T15:31:00.000-05:002008-01-16T15:31:00.000-05:00There are awards out there from organizations that...There are awards out there from organizations that have "more credibility" to judge art (The Golden Kite Award, for example, is awarded by SCBWI).
