Drawing of Little My, a small girl in a red dress, sliding down a hill. She is drawn by Tove Jansson from the Moomin series. The text reads: "WHEN you're angry, then you're angry," thought Little My, peeling her potato with her teeth. "Sometimes you have to be angry. Every little creature has the right to get angry."

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years.

His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds.

A massive loss πŸ’”

if you find this thread interesting I recommend the book Flow written by CsikszentmihΓ‘lyi where the studies originate from
something I found interesting is that Flow is neutral, and can be used for positive or negative experiences, however as artists we can direct this to enhance our creativity!

in a session with my therapist, she was commenting how she can't draw a stick figure -- then recalled a time when she could envision exactly what she wanted and it came out easily on the canvas. and she had no idea how she did it.

I was like, yeah, the flow state. you know, like athletes and gamers

Rough sketches across two pages of the attractive man and woman who are the protagonists of Veil. There's lots of movement in the linework and many different facial expressions, plus some charming little moments, like the two of them happily chowing down on some food.

A thing I really love about the Veil series is the pages of sketches tucked in between finished illustrations and manga vignettes. It's like peeking behind the curtain to see how the manga magic happens. #AmTranslating

Happy #BannedBooksWeek. If you love libraries and hate censorship, I'd encourage you to do more than just read a banned book this week. Here are a few ideas:
1. Get involved in your local public library board
2. Join or start a friends group
3. Organize a people's assembly for your public library
