Osservando il mondo con gli occhi della semplicità e dell’incanto, ogni cosa ci attrae e appare gradevole. Non è necessario vivere in un castello per sentirsi un re o una regina; non è necessario indossare abiti sfarzosi per mostrare la propria regalità.

Nel paese delle pulcette di Beatrice Alemagna: gli occhi dell’incanto

Osservando il mondo con gli occhi della semplicità e dell’incanto, ogni cosa ci attrae e appare gradevole. Non è necessario vivere in un castello per sentirsi un re o una regina; non è necessario indossare abiti sfarzosi per mostrare la propria regalità. Nel paese delle pulcette di Beatrice Alemagna Anche la casuccia più sbilenca e sgangherata può diventare calda e accogliente, basta solamente…

Totally Youthful Tuesday

The main character kiddo in this book doesn’t want to go outside to play. It’s icky out and just, c’mon, it’s just a bummer. But, then, there’s the puddles, and mud, and there’s even snails and my very favourite part, the mushrooms!

This picture book was so cute. The art was awesome and the story was fun too. So much to find outside!

for the asks: 3, 6 and 19! <3

hiiii thank you for the ask!

3. least favourite things to draw? there's always something i can't get quite right when drawing legs, also i hate drawing toddlers and water, specifically the light reflections on it. other than that i pretty much enjoy everything. one thing i've never tried is mechas, i think i'd hate drawing them

6. which artists inspire you right now? these past few weeks i've been trying to go back to traditional and a few artists that inspire me rn are: jorge gonzález (i admire how he manages to mix various medias and create an organic work), david hockney (especially his aquatints), sketches by molly martin, anthony cudahy, beatrice alemagna, and these series of works by viola niccolai

19. favourite character(s) to draw? kendall. from the day i started watching succession i found his side profile very fascinating, so fascinating that i had to draw him as soon as i finished episode 1. i think it's very easy to "cartoonize" him

At The Drop of a Cat by Élise Fontenaille and Violeta López (illustrator). Translated from French by Karin Snelson & Emilie Robert Wong. Enchanted Lion, 2023. 9781592703821. https://www.powells.com/book/-9781592703821?partnerid=34778&p_bt

The narrator of this book loves his grandfather Luis, who takes care of him on Wednesdays and Sundays. Luis's house is surrounded by an incredible garden, and the narrator is just learning to read and write. Luis speaks the language of birds and everyone is jealous of his green thumb. (I'm envious of everything about this book, it's so great!)

As Night Falls: Creatures That Go Wild After Dark by Donna Jo Napoli and illustrated by Felicita Sala. Random House Studio, 2023. 9780593374290. https://www.powells.com/book/-9780593374290?partnerid=34778&p_bt

As kids fall asleep, nature goes wild, from glowing dinoflagellates to fish to spiders and bats and more. The bat illustrations are particularly fabulous, especially if you're not a fan of spiders. At one point the story becomes an homage to There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly, and then it gets super playful. Just beautiful.

You Can't Kill Snow White by Beatrice Alemagna. Enchanted Lion, 2022. 9781592703814. 96pp. https://www.powells.com/book/-9781592703814?partnerid=34778&p_bt

This retelling of Snow White from the queen's point of view is an oversized picture book for adults. I don't love all of the illustrations -- some of them seem, by design, too much to take -- but I can't stop looking at them. And the book's design, particularly the way it opens, is amazing.
