Artist: Trish Grantham
What I find inspiring about her work is the dreamy style of her characters but also the quality of the paintings themselves. The backgrounds all have that encaustic-ish feel and they have very loose compositions. I guess it'd be nice to be able to mix the "fine art" thing with the cute cartoony things.

Artist: Yaniv Shimony
This artist is an illustrator from Jerusalem and his children's books are great, or at least, I like them better than his illustrations. They are all very whimsical but the drawings are good and have a lot of character. i wish I had seen his books before I had started my concentration because I could've picked up some tips and technical sort of ideas. If i ever illustrate another book...I will make it focused more on the characters and not so much the compositions like with this one.
