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!

Not feeling great today, 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.

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

#FromTheInspirationFolder

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.

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)

From Macbeth this time. Incredibly powerful.
