dubin style
Alex Barron and Karmen Page show off their Dubin-style art.
Hall-Kent Elementary School second-graders in Jerome Isley’s class recently created art in the style of illustrator Jill Dubin.
Dubin’s technique is to draw a sketch and then cut different colors of paper to complete the illustrated page. Isley said the students were very engaged in creating scenes using “Dubin-style.”
The students enjoyed researching Dubin’s life and were enthusiastic enough to email her about replicating her style of artwork. Dubin wrote back and even assisted with a writing project. The artist also sent the class a care package.
