#bookillustrationoftheday - always loved these images from Helen Carstairs 1930s book ‘Looking Round London’ - 20 images of the famous spots in the Capital - Marble Arch, Covent Garden, Hyde Park - using vibrant reds, blues and yellows, showing cars and fashion of the day.
#BookIllustrationOfTheDay is from 'Ella Bella Ballerina and A Midsummer Night's Dream' - more mendelssohn than Shakespeare! Behold Titania!
Complex non-digital layers of art for a retro feel.

#BookIllustrationOfTheDay is from “Mrs Noah’s Garden” (text by Jackie Morris, 2021).
Planting seeds is an act of hope, I think. It thrills me to see them grow, flower or fruit. Illustrating a book can be a similar process!

#BookIllustrationOfTheDay continues the #SpookySeason series, with Kazuno Kohara’s “The Haunted House”, in which a young witch demonstrates the perfect solution to having ghosts in your house. Glorious linocuts & sharp storytelling make this book a real gem!
