He has written and illustrated more than 100 books. Contemporary working artists today often cite Ed Emberley as a beloved early inspiration in their development as artists. By encouraging kids to draw using just a few simple shapes, Emberley has made drawing and creating accessible to everyone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Snippet:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Early Work<\/strong><br \/>\nAs Ed Emberley began his children&#8217;s bookmaking career in the 1960s, he had a young family and a new home to support. He found that working in several different styles of drawing (and soon after, printmaking) would allow him the freedom to work on enough book projects to make ends meet. He quickly realized that this variety of style was a key part of who he was as an artist and not simply an approach to launching a career.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anastasiasuen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/steamlogo_whitebg_SM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7867\" src=\"http:\/\/anastasiasuen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/steamlogo_whitebg_SM-300x108.png\" alt=\"steamlogo_whitebg_SM\" width=\"300\" height=\"108\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Try it yourself!
