Picture Books
Black Dog - Levi Pinfold
The use of scale and consideration of the general atmosphere of the images drew me to 'Black Dog'. Throughout the book is a real dynamic sense of composition, in relation to the dog, which I love. The actual textures and way the image have been done also adds to the charm and tone of the story.
The Wolf, The Duck & The Mouse - Mac Barnett & Jon Klassen
Jon Klassen is of course one of my favourite children's book illustrators, not only for his general aesthetic 'style' but for the wit and humour he often includes within his work.
Norse Myths - Kevin Crossley-Holland & Jeffrey Alan Love
I came across this book in a different section of the book shop, but I really liked the use of fairly simply placed shape and texture, as well as the limitations of colour.
Hortense and the Shadow - Natalia & Lauren O'Hara
I LOVE this book, it is so beautiful! I have followed the O'Hara sisters on instagram for a while now and today was the first time I had seen their published work in the flesh! This book in particular is so charming, and the compositions and storytelling really add to the overall tone of the book.
