From September 8th to the 30th, Studio22 Fine Art will feature a showcase of Wallace Edwards’ original illustrations from his 2015 children’s book, Once Upon a Line.

This exclusive collection of original illustrations will be sure to appeal to both new and experienced collectors alike.
“Teachers will now be scrambling to use Once Upon a Line…as the go-to book for story-starters and creative writing projects based on intriguingly unique illustrations that get the creative juices flowing…Once Upon a Line is resplendent in its fantastical graphic details.”—CanLit for LittleCanadians
