Peter Forde has many chapters to his artistic endeavors and flicks through them like an animated flip book. Seeding with comic books, growing through fine art, evolving as an art teacher, branching into mural art, and blooming into illustration, Peter loves his visual expression. Growing up in Ireland gave Peter an appreciation for play, the arts, and family life. There, he got his BFA at DLIADT, which grounded his diverse approach to art. He travelled to London to receive his MA in Digital Arts at Camberwell College of Art, and then went on to become a high school teacher and earn his Certificate in Education. Beautiful Vancouver, BC, is where Peter, his family, and their dog now call home. This is where you can find Peter on his bike, in his studio, or at the library with his kids. This book is inspired by Peter's own children's efforts to harness their active strength into inner strength.
