Terrible Yellow Eyes is a collection of artist’s work inspired by Maurice Sendak’s classic children’s book, Where The Wild Things Are. The website is full of imaginative interpretations of the book’s characters, settings and story. Clearly the original book has provided countless artists and illustrators with the motivation to create images of their own, I know that personally a grade 11 art class assignment to create an illustration for the book really sparked my interest in illustration as a profession.

I stumbled across the work of Josh Keyes while grazing through ffffound to pass the time. His paintings are like weird and wonderful visions that Robert Bateman might have on acid.

Here’s an interesting interview with artist & illustrator Jeff Soto in his garage studio. Seems like a really nice lad.

Check out the work of Canadian based in Brooklyn, Sam Weber. Don’t miss the sketchbook section, it’s a real treat. This is the sort of stuff that makes one want to pick up the brushes and get into the studio…

I’m one step closer to fulfilling my life long dream of living among the trees like Wicket W. Warrick of the planet Endor. Baumraum creates these ingenious structures for tree-dwellers worldwide. Now I just need to find a really huge tree…

Check out the work by Arizona based illustrator Ken Jacobsen. Unfortunately it’s not easy to find working illustrators that can produce this type of classic work. The alphabetical image archive is fun to look through and is a testament to the volume of work that Jacobsen has produced.

I’ve recently rediscovered my love for drawing in pencil, thanks to Lorrie Zwer.
I’m using these classic 2mm clutch pencils with a variety of leads, mostly on the soft side – 2Bs and 4Bs. Read More.

I wish I had this USB hub. Mine is a nasty un-designed PC looking monstrosity. It’s ruining the look of my desk.
