Freya Blackwood
Freya Blackwood (b. 1975) from Australia. Good draughtsmanship and quite sensitive. Her illustrations may be classic but ever so warm and tender.
Jeannie Baker
Today is nearly the last "Australian day" and we will look at the work of an exceptional British born (b. 1950) artist, but living in Australia since 1975. Her name is Jeannie Baker. Her illustrations are made from mostly natural material and she uses preservation techniques. Her miniature collage constructions (as she calls them) are unique.

Jane Tanner
Jane Tanner (b. 1946), another Australian illustrator, works in a detailed way, very accurate, realistic even but that is not what she wants to capture. She wants to capture emotions.
