Chuck Grieb

Be careful what you say to your children. Watching Ray Harryhausen’s Jason and the Argonaughts with his father, four year old Chuck Grieb asked how the skeletons “came alive”. His father’s answer, “They got skinny actors” led the boy to a quest for the truth and a lifelong love for the fantastic.

Inspired by old stories, the world around him, and many artists who have come before Chuck Grieb enjoys creating fantastical imagery.

Currently a full time teacher, Chuck continues to create art and animation, pursuing his love for storytelling and the magic he felt when seeing Ray Harryhausen’s skeletons come alive. Most recently, Chuck has been exploring illustrative art, his work having been featured in esteemed publications including Spectrum: The Best in Contemporary Fantastic Art, Infected By Art, and Exposé.

Chuck is represented for Children’s Books by

Kendra Minadeo

Hi There! I’m Kendra Minadeo, an illustrator based in Los Angeles, CA.

Mostly a self-taught artist, I grew up in the wintry tundra of Alberta, Canada and had the pleasure of mentoring under a handful of very cool artists. There I learned to work in a variety of mediums including acrylic, oil, and watercolor. Additionally, I worked in a host of theater, dance and filmmaking productions both onstage and behind the scenes. These experiences inspired to me to pursue filmmaking and was awarded a production grant from the Alberta Foundation for the Arts to create a short film series exploring a wide range of experimental filmmaking techniques and the delicate phases of mourning.

In my illustrations I continue to work with a mix of mediums; scanning in bits and pieces, compositing, and illustrating digitally with traditional style brushes. I enjoy working with textures, subtle layers, halftones, simple continuous lines, and bold shapes. I like my characters to convey plenty of emotion, a touch of silliness, and wit. I love to make people all warm inside, or cry. Or both!

Kendra is an active member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) and The Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles (SILA).
