Jessica Souhami
Jessica Souhami studied at the Central School of Art and Design which was a public school of fine and applied arts in London, England. In 1980 she formed Mme Souhami and Co, a travelling puppet company using colourful shadow puppets with a musical accompaniment and a storyteller. Her illustrations, like her puppets, use brilliant colour and bold shapes and her characters leap and swoop across the spreads.
