David Roberts
Whilst researching for artists who have illustrated The Wind in the Willows I came across David Roberts' version, published by Candlewick Press. David Roberts is an British Illustrator from Liverpool. Above is a collection of some of his beautiful illustrations which particularly caught my eye. His interpretation of the characters are so charming, and I especially like his interesting use of perspective and colour.
Valerio Vidali
Valerio Vidali is an Italian illustrator. Someone from my course kindly linked me this artist last night, as some of Vidali's work reminded him of my Hercules collages (the above image reminds me of my hydra collage, ever so slightly). I'm really thankful and happy with this find, as his style of work is perfect for inspiration and artist reference. Below are a few of my favourite illustrations, because i've fallen in love with them. The toad image (at the bottom) is inspiring and relevant to my current research into The Wind in the Willows.
(The above image also reminds me of my collage of the giant holding up the sky)
