In conferences, schools, college classes and more, Cyd Moore's high-energy presentations have delighted all ages. Her illustrations are strokes of magic. Her enthusiasm for life, reading, and art leaves audiences with a new understanding and joy for the world of children's books. "In temperament and manner, Moore embodies southern gentility. She sings her words and spreads her expression as broad upturned brush strokes. The same wonder and innocence captured on the animated faces and settings of her books can be found at the corners of her eyes and mouth," states Frank Provensano, of the Observer & Eccentric Newspapers.

Cyd's slide program traces the beginnings of an art career that began as a preschooler. Charming crayon drawings of earless cats, princesses, and mom and baby brother prove that artists aren't always born with exceptional talent! By practicing what you love and trying hard enough, dreams really do manifest in amazing ways.

Cyd delights kids with spontaneous drawings of wild creatures (teachers can make copies of these for all of the students to color themselves!) A natural storyteller, her hilarious southern adventures have the audience laughing and LISTENING. After experiencing a day with Cyd Moore, everyone is inspired to live their lives with a bit more passion.

Cyd brings a terrific AV presentation and supplies her own A/V equipment. The school will need to supply an overhead projector (for drawing demonstration), screen or white wall, and microphone.
