Eric Carle's Blog

I am so excited for this find because Eric Carle is a huge inspiration for me and my work. Here it is Eric Carle's blog which is truly fantastic. A little insight into his world and what he's been up to.

I'm particularly excited about this post of his.

This may even inspire me into creating a short children's book (primarily illustrations, I'm not much of a writer). There could be a few ideas floating around up here in the old noggin.

My Beloved Monster

When I was young I never closed my closet door at night and kept one eye on it until I fell asleep. My parents gave me a monster-proof t-shirt which I wore every night until it was one day unwearable. This is what could be found in my closet.

Inspired by Pixar's Monsters Inc., Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are and the illustration style of Eric Carle's children's books. This image is now for sale on my etsy shop here.
