Great Minds

When I found this book cover on Amazon, I just had to share it with y'all. Look familiar to anyone? hahaha!

Steig wrote the book that helped me conquer my intense fear of the dentist when I was little. (A visit to that dentist would explain-*shudder*) He also wrote another favorite book, Abel's Island. Oh and he's also the creator of a tiny story called Shrek. Click around his site for a peek into the world of this master illustrator.

I actually saw this illo on the Brooklyn museum web site while I was researching something for class- they are having a retrospective of Steig's work- he's so amazing- have you ever read "Pete's a Pizza?" so fabulous. and this is precisely the idea I was working from when I was trying to do my drawing. I swear I can never finish a thought in my brain- I thought you all could read my mind. It looks a lot easier than it is- a great exercise in creativity. Try it!
