Paul Julian et al.

Michael Sporn has posted some beautiful work by Paul Julian from two picture books, Tooooot! and Piccoli. If you haven't seen Paul Julian's work before you should take a look.

Below are two illustrations from Piccoli.


I saw some of Paul Julian's work on Jill McElmurry's pintrest page mentioned below. I love seeing how artists influence each other. The illustration of the little boy has a resemblance to Jill's work. And I just now discovered that Jill McElmurry paints extremely handsome landscapes (that remind me of Marsden Hartley).

Oh Man!
