UNIT 10: Picture book further research

A style that I really like is Maurice Sendak's 'Where the wild things are' picture book. I love the detail that goes in to his work and how he fills the entire page with illustration. I love the patters, colours and crosshatching techniques he uses and feel that my style of drawing is similar in a sense that I also love to create very detailed fine liner drawings.

Another illustrator that I've been inspired by for years is Brett Helquist, who illustrated the Series of Unfortunate Events books. Helquist uses very sharp, straight lines and only subtle traces of colour which I prefer. Again, he makes very detailed work with interesting crosshatching techniques.
