Description
Yay, What a great meme!1. Number one influence- Sheilah Beckett, favourite illustrator of all time. I have gotten to talk to her a few times, and you can definitely see her influence in my work
2. Hilary Knight- Most famous for his illustrations of the book series 'Eloise' I love his books Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast. Gorgeous work
3. Shag- great colour schemes and simplified shapes. Awesome tiki style
4. JC Leyendecker- Not as obvious an influence, but his work had had a great impact on my style sensibility
5. Alphonse Mucha- Art nouveau is evident in some of my work, he's the master
6. Kay Neilsen- Love the small details and intricate nouveau settings
7. Kirsten Ulve- Pretty obvious influence with my more cartoony style, love the way she composes figures
8. Marguerite Sauvage- Gorgeous female forms and excellent line work. Met her in France
9. The backgrounds in Disney's Sleeping Beauty. Splendid 60's look
10. Marcos Chin- Beautiful line work and color use. I wish I had 1/4 of his talent
11. Mary Blair- awesome character design and great gouache work
12. Egon Scheile- Great tortured figures and lines
There are a lot more who influence my work, many on deviantart.
