| ABOUT THE ARTIST |
| Scott Gustafson |
 | |  | |  | |  |
Scott Gustafson’s earliest artistic ambition was to become an animator. But by the time he entered
high school, he became acquainted with artists from the Golden Age of Illustration. Great illustrators
like N.C. Wyeth, Normal Rockwell, Maxfield Parrish and Arthur Rackham opened a door onto a world
of beautiful images that continue to inspire him to this day. Lingering dreams of making animated
films, however, led Scott to major in animation at the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts. It wasn’t until
after leaving art school that the possibility of a career as a freelance illustrator began to truly appeal
to him. Over the nearly twenty-five years that span his career, he has had the opportunity to fulfill
commissions for a number of varied clients and publishers such as Celestial Seasonings, Playboy
magazine, Saturday Evening Post, The Bradford Exchange, Dreamworks and The Greenwich
Workshop. His illustrated books include The Night Before Christmas, Peter Pan, Nutcracker, as well
as two original titles, Animal Orchestra and Alphabet Soup. His newest release, Classic Fairy Tales,
was recently awarded a Chesley award for best interior book illustrations from the Association of
Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists.
