As always, you can have a look at the full set of images over on our Flickr stream, and see a gallery of our participants on this page!
This brings the total of participants to a big number of 46! A big thank you to the wonderful illustrators and artists who came in for this round — and a big hug for being super patient while I work out some timing issues!

See you all in the morning! 😉
Poketo x 826LA Wallet
An 826LA wallet by Esther Pearl Watson
Poketo has recently teamed up with 826LA — a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting students ages 6 to 18 with their creative and expository writing skills — to create a special series of artist wallets where 826LA students crafted short stories to line the inside of Poketo’s artist wallets. The outside of the wallet features Poketo artists’ interpretations of the stories!
The artists chosen to illustrate the stories include Tim Biskup, Esther Pearl Watson, Mark Todd, Martha Rich, Rama Hughes, Christine Castro, Leah Chun, Chris Bettig, John Pham and Keith Knueven.
Your purchase of the wallets will support current and future programs at 826LA, so hop on over for a read!
