burst of beaden

Today in Portland, we are experiancing record-breaking heat. Maybe it was the icy chill of these images that drew me in to escape the heat...but this morning I am really loving the work of Jon Klassen of burst of beaden. His illustrations have appeared in various films, including Portland-made Coraline, children's books, and commercials. Most recently he contributed to a book titled We are the Friction that is a collaboration between writers and illustrators...this is definitely worth checking out if you haven't already.



I think this sailboat image is going to need to be purchased soon...or perhaps the beach house below...decisions decisions!!
