A great excuse to post one of my favorite pictures from this amazing illustrator!

I'll try to make a proper #FromTheInspirationFolder later with more of his stuff but I had to share this one cause it's just so absolutely perfect 💛

A few wonderful drawings #FromTheInspirationFolder by E. H. Shepard (1879 – 1976) to commemorate his birthday.

A few more illustrations by Jean-Jacques Grandville (1803-1847) from "Public and private life of animals".

I really enjoy his insects and other animals that are not often drawn anthropomorphized. So much character in these!

Some of the marvelous illustrations by Jean-Jacques Grandville (1803-1847) from "Public and private life of animals", written by P. J. Stahl.

Still not feeling great, looking through the illustration work of Natalia Trepenok (b. 1953) to cheer myself up so I'm sharing some with you too!

Some of the best animals in the business IMO.

A Halloween special #FromTheInspirationFolder :

Cause no one does eerie moods quite like Josep Segrelles (1885-1969). Dreamlike and strange and mesmerizing work.

An idea borrowed from @vmaderna.bsky.social - share some of your inspirations!
I have many, but the 3 most important ones (whose work I came across in my formative years, creatively speaking) are Tex Avery, André Franquin and Raymond Macherot. I'm not sure if it shows.

The last illustration on the first post was meant to be this one, I messed up! So you get an extra 😅

And a few more! Peter Kľúčik's illustrations for The Hobbit.

Haven't done a #FromTheInspirationFolder post in a while so I thought I'd share some of Peter Kľúčik's (b. 1953) amazing 1989 illustrations for The Hobbit.

These never saw print as the publisher lost the rights to the book.

Gabrielle Vincent (nom de plume of Monique Martin) (1928-2000)
#FromTheInspirationFolder

Her Ernest and Celestine books are simply gorgeous, I adore the sensibility and the feel of intimacy in her drawings. Super expressive body language in her characters too - just marvelous.

And some more Ferenc Pintér (1931-2008)
#FromTheInspirationFolder

From Macbeth this time. Incredibly powerful.

More Ferenc Pintér (1931-2008)
#FromTheInspirationFolder

His Pinocchio illustrations (published posthumously) are really amazing and perfectly convey that this is actually a pretty dark story.

Today's artist: Ferenc Pintér (1931-2008)
#FromTheInspirationFolder

Another big favorite (yes I have many).
I'm always blown away by his masterful work. The bold shapes and carefully crafted compositions, the fantastic combinations of organic/geometric and textural/flat, the moods. Just so unique.

And a few more from Hermann Vogel (1854-1921) #FromTheInspirationFolder

More Hermann Vogel (1854-1921) #FromTheInspirationFolder

I always marvel at his amazing compositions and at how naturally he married naturalistic depiction with ornamental/graphic elements.
July 14, 2024 at 4:03 PM
Another of my favorites #FromTheInspirationFolder

Hermann Vogel (1854-1921) created the most wonderful worlds, chock-full of charming details and intricate linework.

Just such a perfect example of the utter magic of drawing.
