This artist book explores the world of children’s book illustrations seen through the eyes of Ryan Trautmann. These artworks could be used in different aspects of children’s entertainment - ranging to more adult audiences. Ryan’s goal is to inspire kids to think creatively, allowing them to explore their imaginations through the use of talking animals, far away lands and fairy tale endings. In this book, there are also a number of studies, portraits and editorial illustrations I’ve done throughout the past couple of years that I enjoy. Please do so as well…

I would like to also thank anyone and everyone that has been a part of my life.

Without your influences I could not be the person and artist I am today.

Thank you.


Ryan Trautmann
