Creature Project - Artist Research

Here are some artists I found that relate to the Creature Project.



Marta Altes
I love how she has used pencil sharpenings and simple lines to create characters. It's very clever, I would never have thought of that.


 Shaun Tan
I love the shading that Shaun has used for this little creature. It's cute that he has given it suitcases made out of nutshells, this also gives us a recognisable scale to think about it so we know the creature is really small.



Mattias Adolfsson
These look like they were ink splodges like what we did and he has made characters from them. They are all very odd and I wonder if he would have ever thought them up if it weren't for the ink... Or is it ink? Maybe he made the characters and then shaded them in ink. Either way, they are very interesting and unusual.
