Description I painted this one for the Terrible Yellow Eyes Blog ([link] ) and because Maurice Benard Sendak (he whos shoes I am unworthy to tie) is one of the greatest artists to ever live. I still have my old Where the Wild Things book... it has a lot of my 3 year old self pencil doodle monsters!!!

This is so awesome! Very storybook-ish. I've never read the book, but I loved the movie.

No one will ever recreate Sendak's beautiful monsters as well as he did, but your interpretation is quite fascinating (:
I adore this painting to pieces!

I love the details of the fur/hair on Max and Carol. The design of the two characters is superb, and the overall story book feel is very well done just as everything else in this illustration! I'm very impressed! I'm so in love with this! Wonderful, wonderful job!

This is so adorable, and I like how the stars and moon are hung from strings. Very cute! Would definitely buy if it was a print, but I'll just settle with faving it.
