Welcome. This issue features a wide variety of views of what illustration is and can be. Whether it’s the diversity from one voice to many or using private exploration to find new paths in the commercial arena, each artist has arrived at making individualized art and a worldwide audience who applauds their efforts. From authored and illustrated picture books to French cartoonist monographs to work that looks every bit as good on a gallery wall as it does in print. From the technical to esoteric, these artists shine. —Charles Hively
