“I’m one of those classic stories of the kid who drew in class,” says Toronto-based illustrator Graham Roumieu. “I started with drawing Transformers in grade school, mostly in the margins of my notebooks.” And Graham hasn’t, , and many others. He’s also created a trio of Bigfoot-themed books, and has illustrated every Cottage Glossary since its debut in our May ’23 issue. “I always try to add a bit of a surprise factor,” says Graham of his approach to the illustrations. For this issue’s edition? “You know if that piece of toast goes in the water it’s doomed.” See the scene on p. 98.
