Schu studied art and design at the University of Oregon, then worked as a graphic designer and editorial illustrator before shifting focus to book illustration and fine art around 2018. Since then he\u2019s illustrated a steady stream of picture and chapter books, including \u201cCut! How Lotte Reiniger and a Pair of Scissors Revolutionized Animation,\u201d \u201cMy Cat Does Ballet,\u201d the \u201cCosmic Collisions\u201d series with Dr. Marc Kuchner, \u201cStar and the Maestro,\u201d \u201cI Know the Whale,\u201d \u201cThe Tontine Caper,\u201d and \u201cThe Islands of Elsewhere,\u201d with the upcoming \u201cBackpack Boy Berlin\u201d also on his slate. His work on \u201cCut!\u201d earned a starred review from The Horn Book, which praised his \u201cexquisite digital illustrations\u201d for their strong sense of illumination and depth, noting they suggest \u201ca tactile quality, as if constructed from paper\u201d \u2014 a fitting homage given the book\u2019s subject, animation pioneer Lotte Reiniger.<\/p>\n
