Here is a drawing. A Character from Where the Wild Things Are, created by Maurice Sendak. His work has inspired me as it has many children and adults around the world for a couple generations now. I think his work affected me more than I knew. I see the inspiration coming through in my creatures, and some of the people that I draw. Maybe you do too, or with another childrens book illustrator. Whenever I look back at Where the Wild Things Are, I am reminded that I never really let go of that precious childhood imagination. That is a comforting thought and perhaps one of the only ones I have left.
