Quentin Blake

Quentin Blake is the main illustrator for Roald Dahl books. His art work has inspired me to draw and the paint the scenery for Fantastic Mr Fox, the same way Quentin did. His use of colours are very suttle, he did this by using water based media for example block paint or watered down acrylic paint. His artwork is very messy and simple which appeals to kids more than really detailed paintings.

I want the scenry to be simple as this picture and very messy this will also help the kids to realise that the character are in a book






I'm planning to make miniature cardboard cut-outs to see how they might look and to see if I have to make any changes
