Cover spread from GRPL 2012 Annual Report; illustration by Kate Wheeler |
The Grand Rapids Public Library's 2012 annual report is ready for online viewing.
Thanks to the amazing illustrations by Kate Wheeler of Rat Girl Studios (she also happens to be on staff at the library!), we've published an annual report that really doesn't look much like an annual report at all. And I mean that as the very highest compliment!
Taking the barest of outlines as her starting point, Kate ran with it and developed rich concepts and lovely, magical illustrations that sweep the reader right into the drama.

I only give myself the barest of credit for laying out the type nicely. Kudos really belong to Kate for this one!
