Monday Inspiration: Maurice Sendak on Illustration
I love this video.
Maurice Sendak is so honest about the nature of being an illustrator. How does it all work? He doesn't know...
Basically, as an illustrator, you just want to tell a good story with your drawings. Yep, that's about it. He makes it seem so simple...It suppose he has the experience, he has been illustrating for over 60 years...amazing!
