Beautiful little video of the masterful Leo Lionni talking about his work, and why he was so drawn to writing about and illustrating animals. 

Score! Pun!

I saw a few loose pages in an Etsy shop (called Sensorium, click here for more) of this amazing Gershwin Song Book (which is cool enough) illustrated by the legendary Milton Glaser (which is amazing!) published in 1960 and had to find out more.

I searched out a complete song book, in beautiful condition at Abe Books and eeeeeeeeeeeee….it’s really lovely. Below are a just couple more images from the song book. Yet, there are many more. 

A super quick, borrowing-elements-from-myself illustration to use as a thank you image on Etsy for feedback. If you are unfamiliar with the feedback system at Etsy, click the above image to see some examples of how this is used.

It was a fun few minutes just quickly goofing around. I did 6 colorways with 2 textures each (flat & textured), for now at least. Tweet!

From the book Whistle For Willie, by Ezra Jack Keats, one of the best illustrators and children’s book authors ever. Always so beautiful and perfect.

I just found this print by an illustrator that I’ve really liked for a while, Tabitha Brown, aka The Pairabirds, that is super striking. And, a bit of a change from the illustrations that I’ve seen her do before, which are also really lovely.
