Savanna by Ida Pearle.
Artist, musician, composer, children’s book creator… Ida Pearle has many strings to her bow. As a child, she loved to draw, and also studied the violin. She went on to do a fine arts degree, majoring in figurative drawing and painting, and then spent several years recording and touring. However, she is most well known for her beautiful and intricate hand-cut paper collages for children. “I try to make imagery for children which reflects a child’s inherent sense of curiosity, freedom and playfulness,” Ida tells us. “There is a lot of movement in my pictures – music and visual art really connect for me.” Heartfelt and sensitive, her collages and sketches capture a range of emotions, from the still, intimate moments between parents and children, to the sheer, joyful delight of being a child.
