YOUNGSTERS had a hands-on experience of the world of illustration at an Oxford museum.

The Draw Me A Story exhibition at the Story Museum featured works from children’s illustrators such as Quentin Blake, Nick Sharratt and Korky Paul.

Among the features of the exhibition, which runs until the end of September, is an Illustrator Zoo inhabited by professionals each day at the Pembroke Street venue.

Tablets were also loaded up with videos showing their best work.

Among those joining in the fun was Ellen Simpson who is watching a video demonstration from some of her favourite artists.

The six-year-old from Abingdon said: “I had been before a couple of weeks ago and when I found out I was going again I was so excited.

“I like Quentin Blake and Nick Sharratt the best.”
