艾莉森·简出生于英国的翰弗郡，长在德比郡。她就读于伦敦大学的平面设计专业，学习了绘画与专业插画的技巧，并以全班第一名的成绩毕业，之后就职于一家动漫工作室。 这样过了一两年，她决定改变职业方向，开始了插画家的职业生涯。现在她的插画作品遍布于各个领域，包括设计、广告、项目，以及她最热爱的童书创作。目前她正与阿德曼动画公司（Ardman Animation）合作，制作新版本的《胡桃夹子》动画电影。 艾莉森的画作非常具有特点，她利用一种叫做Alkyd（醇酸树脂）的油画颜料作画，在画布表面做一层快速涂抹，干了就会形成类似于龟裂的仿旧效果。很多小读者将她的画作可爱地称为“碎蛋壳画”。她在创作插画中非常注重趣味性，每张图之间都会暗藏承上启下的线索，并将大家耳熟能详的童话故事融入其中，使插画能够无限地延伸，增大了阅读的自主和自由度。 “让想象飞”是其代表作品，其中《...(展开全部)
