Laura Ellen Anderson, author and illustrator of the Amelia Fang series, recently took part in the #drawthisinyourstyle challenge on twitter by inviting other illustrators to draw her fabulous characters in their own style.
Speaking of the challenge, Laura said ‘I have been completely and utterly blown away by the response I’ve had for the Amelia Fang #drawthisinyourstyle challenge. I’ve loved seeing Amelia come to life in so many different styles; each completely unique to the artist and oozing with character. It’s an honour to have so many artists I admire getting involved and a complete joy to see a character I created reproduced such a variety of FANGTASTIC ways. I love every single Amelia that has been created – I get so excited to open my twitter to find a new recreation waiting for me… I can’t wait to see more!’
Here’s a round up of the Amelia Fang #Drawthisinyourstyle posts so far:
This sounds fun, so Iโm joining in #drawthisinyourstyle. (Although I may be a bit late in the game!) But here goes… This is Amelia Fang, and I’d love to see what she looks like drawn in your style if you fancy it ๐ pic.twitter.com/VDdAxX8eyz

O, we love a good drawing challenge! Blindfold is popular at my 8-year-old’s art table. How about a pair of scissors, glue, paper, & a whole lot of patience? Now the whole day has passed and gifted us with this. In case you are wondering, YES, you can hug a tiny paper Squashy! pic.twitter.com/eVivqwlPYs

Florence decided to get in on the challenge too. She calls her drawing of Amelia and Squashy “Rough Yeti Draft” from her “Blue Striped Period. pic.twitter.com/hnIqY5iYQ2

I keep forgetting to post this, a redraw of @Lillustrator Amelia Fang for #drawthisinyourstyle Iโve just started reading them with my little girl whoโs loving the stories. Sheโs started drawing Amelia herself but has only done the face so far! ๐ pic.twitter.com/Pyb9nicPaO
