With a degree in art from Iowa State University firmly in hand, Bill Ersland knocked on the door of the established<br />
design firm Hellman Associates in Waterloo, Iowa. There, for ten years, he honed his skills<br />
working with a talented group of illustrators and designers whose clients included some of the country’s<br />
largest corporations, magazines, and publishers. In 1983 Ersland moved to Stillwater, Minnesota, and<br />
embarked on a prolific freelance career. His clients include Scholastic, Deere & Company, Philadelphia’s<br />
Inquirer magazine, Perfection <strong>Learning</strong> Publishing, and a variety of advertising agencies throughout the<br />
Midwest. A member of the Society of Illustrators, Ersland also exhibits through a local gallery featuring<br />
historical and Western art.<br />

Born in Japan, Tuko Fujisaki grew up in southern California. At first a sun worshipper, she discovered she<br />
loved New York and cafés and started wearing a lot of black—not a good look at the beach. After living<br />
in New York, then New Mexico, she finally came to her senses and found a home in Hawaii—the green,<br />
the ocean, the sun, and gentle lifestyle. Tuko started her art career as a designer, but quickly moved to<br />
illustration because she found it more rewarding. She also found lots of jobs, from corporations to magazine<br />
work, educational stuff, even TV. The best reward has been doing what she loves! Tuko Fujisaki<br />
can be contacted by phone: 800-208-2456 or by mail: RR2 Box 4797, Pahoa, HI 96778.<br />
