I spy with my great big eye … an example of Marjorie Crosby-Fairall’s illustrations for her award-winning work-in-progress.

Double honours for Marjorie Crosby-Fairall

November 21, 2022

Congratulations to illustrator and dynamic Australia East committee member Marjorie Crosby-Fairall, who is the recipient of not one but TWO grants awarded by SCBWI international.

The 2022 Don Freeman Grant - Published category

and

The SCBWI 2022 Honor WOOP Grant.

Don Freeman was a renowned illustrator and an early supporter of SCBWI. He established this award to enable picture book illustrators to further their understanding, training, and work in the picture book genre.

The WOOP Grant? It’s for Work of Outstanding Progress.

Three cheers for Marjorie - woop, woop, WOOP!
