7-28-08 The cutest mouse on Earth, Despereaux

Here are cartoons of two chinchillas and two long eared jerboas I was drawing. I kept wanting to draw big ears and I wondered why. To listen more?, I thought.

When I saw the preview of the upcoming movie, Tale of Despereaux, I fell in love, and thought, maybe that's why I am attracted to drawing BIG EARS?
Here is the cute eared mouse star of the upcoming movie. Those are the cutest big ears I have ever seen! For me it was love at first sight.
I had been drawing lots of fish for a year before Finding Nemo came out. I wonder if I was somehow connecting into those animator's creative explorations studying fish and cute furry creature drawings?
Or... maybe in the movie, there is a special message in the story I can learn from????
I don't think I can wait. I'm getting the book!! The Tales of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo.

Bunny DaVinci 

Leonardo's renaissance bunny

From my shop at Lillyzazzle
This Renaissance Rabbit is expressing his PASSION for the Leafy Loves in his life. "Oh lettuce so leafy- you are beyond beliefy!" His carrot captivation: ""And oh my carrot! I just can't bare it, you are the orange root that makes my heart go toot." "I feel so alive with endive" "I feel so free with my snowy pea" "Oh twist and shout my darling sprout"....oh well, you get the idea...love is like that...its nature.

Charles Schultz and the Peanuts Gang 

Snoopy, Charlie Brown, Lucy and the Loveable Gang of kids

"I used to have a talk show, and on that talk show, I had the joy and privilege of interviewing Charles Schulz.
Having grown up with the strip, and having heard periodically that he was a guy who had suffered from depression, I thought, I gotta meet this guy. Because I want to know how you work out those things that are in you.
He was to me just a really, really great man who had no idea why he was great. And it bothered him, the accolades he got he felt weren't his, for some reason. He didn't feel they were...deserved. And I think he didn't feel particularly connected to the world. He was appreciative and very, very loving about all of the good things that came his way but I think he was always mildly surprised.
He was also a pretty angry guy. And I gotta love that. I gotta love that because it's something that makes him a great artist. I think he had a lot of rage, and he worked it out the way he worked it out. Very, very smart. Very, very shy. Funny, but not in a "ha-ha-ha" way, but just wit."
---from the introduction by Whoopi Goldberg speaking about The Complete Peanuts 1959-1962

Mark Parisi does brilliantly clever cartoons that are also cute in his fun way. I love him. Oh, and also his cartoons. Example: Mr. Frog at the doctors office getting news about his xrays. In the picture you can see that Mr. Frog looks a lot like Kermit and the xray shows a hand skeleton going up into his head... "Have a seat Mr. Frog, these xrays may come as a shock to you..." What a great mind.

Cute Kids Book Illustrators 

Great pictures with great stories.

I spend many of my days sitting on the floor in the kids library or in those small chairs in Borders childrens books section. Some times the kids look at me funny. I love kids books.
Sandra Boynton
Sandra Boynton is well loved for her many cartoon animal images on greeting cards, in books and more recently IN SONGS!!! I love her Philadelphia Chickens CD!...especially the song: Cows by the Seldom Herd. Others singing on this CD include Meryl Streep and Kevin Bacon, Patti LuPone, Kevin Kline, and Scott Bacula!! You can sample all the Sandra Boynton songs here.
Quentin Blake
Quentin Blake is a master cartoonist. He creates wonderful drawings and illustrations. His characters are filled with fun and whimsy. His unique drawing style always calls to me to linger and feel. His beings are filled with bounce and movement and flair. Learn more aboutQuentin Blake.
Babette Cole
I've read every children's book I can find by this wonderful zany wild fun Babette Cole! Her stories say things Bold and delightfully unexpected. I think I remember "...then Grandma and Grandpa dropped dead" And she does it with such style and fun, it works beautifully. She is from Dorset, England. After you read some and look at the carazzzy characters in her books, you just want to meet her, or spend the day on a wild adventure with her. I can (and do) read her books OVER AND OVER AND OVER. I think kids love them too. Take a look at the book covers at an Amazon module I made for just her titles. I realized I hadn't read them all! And I'm excited that there are more than I knew about, so I get to read more. To discover more take a look at her books.

More Children's Book Illustrators and Illustration 

You can often find me on the floor surrounded by a pile of kids books in either Border's children's book area or the kids library. As I get older and more sophisticated, I tend to read more sophisticated material. Picture books are the perfect brain stimulation.
Robert Snow's Snowflakes
Approximately 200 children's book illustrators and artists created a unique snowflake design to sell for cancer charity. The variety and styles of the designs are beautiful. Find your favorite illustrator and peruse the 'each one unique' snowflakes. Make sure you also look on the back, as most are designed on both sides. I especially loved Mo Willems, David Wiesner, Bruce Degen, and Nicole Tadgell. But there are so many more....
Illustration Friday
Want to see the weekly whimsical work of artists, cartoonists, illustrators, graphic artists, and creative people from all walks of life? Illustration Friday is a fun place to peruse a plethora of pleasurable possibilities in art. Each week has a theme and then everyone can submit a link to their artwork. A great site to discover artists and see all the variety and styles.
Jacket Flap

I get happily lost there for hours and discover imaginative inspiration from new books and illustrations. Endless useful information here. I can't recommend this site enough!

Books Illustrated by Babette Cole 

She is absolutely unique and on the edge...so good.

Babette Cole is a children's book writer and illustrator from Dorset England. She writes zany stories filled with exhuberance that are real page turners, and her watercolor charicatures are beyond pure delight. These books are fantastic fun. She's just so....indescribable...she's one of the most inspiring irreverant original book writers I can think of. When I look at her pictures, I get the feeling that it's okay to be different and free. Her artistic whimsy gives permission to be ......a creative oddball with zest and panache. Her unique perspective is refreshing and uplifting. Many of her books have delightfully unexpected surprise endings.

Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain
Drawing on the Right Side of The Brain by Betty Edwards
Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards is simply the best book I know of to teach drawing. (This is for real life drawing, not cartoons) It teaches a way of seeing and how to make a mental shift where you can feel a part of yourself take control.. if you let it... and that part of your brain ALREADY KNOWS HOW TO DRAW! I have seen a number of people blown over by this experience in the happiest of ways. It has changed lives. It is a wonderful confidence builder. You learn how you have two different modes of approach to seeing and doing and how to refine and use them. And... YOU JUST CAN DRAW! It's one of the best surprises to see this occur for oneself. I highly recommend this book.

Nobody sings like Sebastian! This Cute Caribbean Crab is singing to Ariel, the mermaid, about where her REAL home is. The wonderful voice of Samuel E. Wright:"Under the sea, Darling it's better, Down where it's wetter, Take it from me. Up on the shore they work all day, Out in the sun they slave away, While we devotin', Full time to floatin', UNDER THE SEA!" Original score by Alan Menken.
Hakuna Matata from Disney's The Lion King
Timon (The Meercat) and Pumbaa (the warthog) have a great theme song for Simba the Lion. There ain't no better way to be than Hakuna Matata. It means: NO WORRIES! "Hakuna Matata!, What a wonderful phrase, Hakuna Matata!, Ain't no passing craze, It means no worries,For the rest of your days,It's our problem-free philosophy: HAKUNA MATATA! Yea, sing it! Running time: 3:33. Music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice.
Performed by Nathan Lane, Ernie Sabella, Jason Weaver, and Joseph Williams
Be Our Guest- Disney's Beauty and The Beast
Lumiere,(Jerry Orbach)the french candlestick and the Cogsworth,the clock (David Ogden Stiers), and teapot(Angela Lansbury) sing a great musical number to Belle (Paige O'Hara). Composed by Alan Menken Lyrics by Howard Ashman 3.44 min :"Be our guest, Be our guest, Put our service to the test, Tie your napkin 'round your neck, cherie, And we provide the rest. Soup du jour, Hot hors d'oeuvres, Why, We only live to serve, Try the grey stuff, it's delicious, Don't believe me? Ask the dishes. They can sing. They can dance. After all, Miss, this is France, And a dinner here is never second best. Go on, unfold your menu, Take a glance, and then you'll Be our guest, Oui, our guest, BE OUR GUEST!"
Disney's Tarzan- Son of Man Song Video Clip
(*Note, this is in Thai- The English version was taken off of u-tube) Phil Collins wrote incredible songs for the Disney's Animated Movie: Tarzan. This song, Son of Man, is one of my favorites. Kala,(Glenn Close), is Tarzan's adopted ape-mom. The voice of young Tarzan is performed by 5 year-old Alex D. Linz. (3.28 min clip) Lyrics: "Oh, the power to be strong, And the wisdom to be wise. All these things will come to you in time. On this journey that you're making, There'll be answers that you'll seek. And it's you who'll climb the mountain, It's you who'll reach the peak. Son of Man, look to the sky. Lift your spirit, set it free. Some day you'll walk tall with pride. Son of Man, a man in time you'll be." An incredible clip.
I Just Can't Wait to Be King- Disney Lion King
(*Note this is in French, the english version was taken off of utube) This scene and song is one of my all time favorites- EVER. Young lion cub Simba (Jason Weaver sings) (movie voice played by Jonathan Taylor Thomas) and Nala (sung by Laura Williams) (movie voice by Niketa Calame) and are following the bird Zazu (Rowan Atkinson) on an adventure. A little mischief and a great fun romp put to fantastic music and words we can all relate to.
Songs by Elton John and Lyricist Tim Rice. (With film score by Hans Zimmer)
Circle of Life Disney's Lion King
Another Grand Masterpiece. I don't know why but it ALWAYS makes me cry-- in a good way, it always gets me. I think if we met aliens from a different planet, I would play them this about who we are. Sung beautifully by Carmen Twillie. Song and Lyrics by Elton John and Tim Rice. . Wow, I think I'm a romantic, why does this song make me cry!!??

8 min Cute Polish Cartoon
This is a very cute AND SWEET, little story of a a girl and two boys on a days adventure in the forest with animals. It's amazing in the feel of it, you can tell its not from USA. I can't describe the style, but you'll feel it. It's good hearted, good natured, and fun loving. It's a light hearted romp - soft rather than intense. Sweet. I started out ho-hum, but by the time it was over, I found I had enjoyed myself and felt warmed. I rate this VERY VERY CUTE.
