Quentin Blake - Top illustrator tips

Following on from our session with Mike Spoor (which made the paper this week) the BBC are running a program about Quentin Blake. Without a doubt he is one of the foremost illustrators of the modern era. His drawings for Roald Dahl books are some of the most popular ever created.

Watch Stephen Smith's full film on Quentin Blake on BBC Newsnight on Tuesday 11 December 2012 at 2230 GMT. Or watch afterwards on BBC iPlayer and Newsnight website.
