We were saddened to hear of the passing of Grouse Mountain’s beloved Grinder. For the last 25 years, Grinder and fellow rescue grizzly bear Coola have touched countless lives. Our thoughts are with Coola and the Grouse Mountain team.

I'm Christy Obalek, author/illustrator of The Thing About Birds & Drawn from Nature (coming Fall 2026). I love working in watercolour for the transparency & "happy accidents"—I work with fairly wet paint, so there's room to allow the pigment to settle how it wants. #Watercolor

I’m David Norwell, Author/Illustrator of A Complex Coast. I didn’t formally learn watercolours, I just got a paint set & started painting in my journals. My goal is to have it look very raw & authentic. My Grampa was an amazing watercolour artist & was always my inspiration.

Hello! I'm Keiko Honda, author & illustrator of Hidden Flowers. I came to watercolour sideways, & later than expected. It was a way of seeing slowly in a life that moved fast. What I love about the medium is what makes it difficult: water does what it wants. #WorldWatercolorMonth

Hello! I’m Joanne Thomson, author/illustrator of 300 Mason Jars. Watercolour painting is like having a quiet conversation with someone you want to know better. It is intimate, exacting and rewarding. I always learn something about the paint and about myself. #WorldWatercolorMonth

It’s #InternationalMoonDay! 🌖 Join a young boy and his cat for a whimsical bedtime story exploring the majesty and wonder of the moon in our forthcoming picture book, coming this October. #APerfectWordToGiftTheMoon #PictureBooks

Hellooo:) I’m Renee Hansen, full-time mom and Illustrator of Whitey’s Journey. When I was about twelve, my great aunt gifted me my first set of watercolours and taught me the basics. It’s been my medium of choice ever since! #WorldWatercolorMonth2026
